Old Toy Tin Soldier,
Joints constantly creaking,
Except for those beneath the knees,
Lost in a sandbox, phantomly squeaking...

Tin Soldier,
Our favorite toy of yesteryear,
Made in the USA, by Mattel
Proudly poisoned with lead-based solder,
Something we never used to fear,

Lil' Forgotten Tin Soldier,
who wears an aluminum foil hat,
Dwells in his forgotten Toy-Chest,
Forgotten but not discarded,
At least, not like that.
