Batteries Not Included

Six o'clock in the morning, wake up by the bed
There sits a new Japanese toy - and I like it
See the name on the wrapping, can't read yet but I know
It's made for me, lucky boy - and I want it
Lights that flash, wheels that go round, digital display
Fresh silicon chips to enjoy - and I need them
Where's the batteries, where's the batteries

Sitting silent and empty, wish I could breathe life
In my friend who's terribly still - and I like him
Just like me, perhaps he's hungry, six volts make him smile
And twelve volts would probably kill - how I like him

Daddy, where's the batteries, I can't find my batteries
There's no batteries, where are they
I can't find my batteries, where are they

Where's the batteries, where's the batteries

Seven o'clock in the morning, they find me by the bed
With my friend the Japanese toy - I am with him
Mummy, Daddy - can't see you, hear you
Batteries not included in this little boy
Where's the batteries, where's the batteries
