Mr. Kite: When a mouse goes meow and a cat goes woof
And the kite is afraid to fly above the roof
Don't be frightened by all the noise
On The Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, The Island of Misfit Toys
Toys
Mr. Kite: When a jack-in-the-box isn't Jack at all
And there isn't any bounce in the bouncing ball,
Take a breath, regain your poise
On The Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys,
Toys, toys, toys, toys, toys, toys, toys
Mr. Kite: Seems like everyone wants to attain perfection
Nobody wants to be different and face rejection
Binoculars: Does anybody like me?
Mr. Kite: I sure do.
Look, those binoculars just can’t see
And the dizzy, dizzy top is a catastrophe
But there's no one that this annoys
On The Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys,
Toys, toys, toys, we're on the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, toys, toys
Mr. Kite: There's a pig without a slot as if you shake her 'round
And listen to her tummy, you won't hear a sound
Not a penny to make a noise
On the Island of Misfit Toys
Snowflakes come in different shapes and sizes,
Like a misfit toy, they're chock full of surprises
Let go of my tail!
There's a train that can't roll down the track
A boomerang won't come back,
A rattle without a noise
On the Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys,
Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, we're on the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, toys, toys
[Album only]
And if you're a dolly without a leg
Or a round hole board with all square pegs
No need for covert lines
On the Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys,
Toys, toys, toys, we're on the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, toys, toys
And if you’re a crapster without no dice
Or a skating rink that has no ice
We even blanch to boys
On the Island of Misfit Toys
Life can be so unfair and confusing
But here we put an end to crass putzing
So if you stick out like a big sore thumb
Too tall, too short, too smart, too dumb
We welcome you girls and boys
To the Island of Misfit Toys
Rudolph, Hermey and Mr. Kite: Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys,
Oohhhh, the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, we're on the Island of Misfit Toys
Toys, toys, toys, toys, toys
