Stop - don't say you'll put me down Love - don't go away Drop my feet back on the ground Open your arms, let me stay
Hold me like you know you should Don't leave me on the shelf Like a doll you throw away So sad and lonely all by myself
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box You know whenever love knocks I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring A toy used up when it stops I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box Because for your love I'd do anything
Who just keeps my heart around? Loves to pull the strings? You - and when it's upside down Look at the way that it swings
I can't help the way I feel It's you and no one else Comes the tune, but all too soon I'm just a doll put back on the shelf
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box You know whenever love knocks I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring A toy used up when it stops I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box Because for your love I'd do anything
La la la la la la la... La la la la la la la... La la la la la la la la la la... La la la la la la la... La la la la la la la... La la la la la la la la la la...
Hey, hear what I say You'll find someday that I walked away from you So say I've got to stay And from today it's love that's gonna break through
I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box You know whenever love knocks I'm gonna bounce up and down on my spring A toy used up when it stops I'm just your Jack-in-the-Box Because for your love I'd do anything
