What was this thing I didn't understand
It was such a strange enigma to me
I tried so hard to figure it out
I searched high and low for a skeleton key
And then a light
Came shining through
And I knew exactly what to do

I hit it with my hammer
And it cracked wide open
And all of its junk spilled across the floor
I hit it with my hammer
And it cracked wide open
And a world of wonder it lie in store

The words on the box said handle with care
But I was never good with following directions
And all I wanted was my prize inside
Add whatever I could add to my collections
And then a light
Went off in my head
This could be the biggest thing since sliced bread

Yeah it was everything I ever
Hoped it would be
All my dreams and wishes
All rolled into one
Yeah it was everything I ever
Hoped it would be
And I shouted, Hot damn
I'm gonna have me some fun

Got what I need, I'm a happy clam
And there's nothing more I could ever want
What lies beyond I will never know
It beckons me with a familiar taunt
And then a light
It shined so bright
And I didn't feel alone in the night
