lyrics
I tied a barbie doll to a track of Make Believe train set
When howdy doody comes he’s gonna be upset
I cut off the head of my little pony
put'em in the bed of Ken doll, that phony
Chorus:
I'm an action figure super villian
I take good toys and kill them
I'm not out for the money
or any of that normal evil stuff
I like to play with my toys
a little too rough
I cut the heart right out of a Care Bear
while all of his little friends had to watch and Care Bear Stare
well I had a Teddy Rukspin
I replaced with one of me just cussin'
You've never seen a 5 year old quite so shocked
or a Teddy Rukspin tied up and sunk to the bottom of a lake with a rock
I am Teddy Rukspin
Can I read you a story
about a bad kid
who torched all his friends
There was that time when
during the blizzard of '82
Hoth appeared in my front yard
I was Luke Skywalker
freezin' to death out on the tundra
that ice creature nearly ate me
and now I was waitin' for Ben
My neighbor had to cut open the Taun taun
and stuff me inside
he neglected to tell me it was my dog
Bridge:
Gi Joe tranny
Gi Joe Tranny
Ken goes out for a night on the town
looking for the best reststop to hang around
He drives real fast so he isn't late
he needs to pickup is hasbro date
They really hit it off at once
Lookin for secluded place to go
He's picked up himself
a tranny GI Joe
Ken's findin out that it's not his day
he's in for a plastic suprise
he's dressed like scarlett or lady jay
but comes with the package like snake eyes
But she's not gonna let this one slip
She's got herself a Kung Fu Grip!
When howdy doody comes he’s gonna be upset
I cut off the head of my little pony
put'em in the bed of Ken doll, that phony
Chorus:
I'm an action figure super villian
I take good toys and kill them
I'm not out for the money
or any of that normal evil stuff
I like to play with my toys

I cut the heart right out of a Care Bear
while all of his little friends had to watch and Care Bear Stare
