Back then when you loved me, I held each precious gift,
But now I’ve been rejected. I’m feeling somewhat…miffed.
You only pay attention now to presents I had in.
I’m just a piece of gift wrap, sad and lonely gift wrap,
Old, forgotten gift wrap, lying in the bin.
You eyed me up so happily, but then, when you had lunched,
I felt you come and tear at me, and now I’m lying…scrunched.
Oh where did this abandonment, this heartlessness begin?
I’m just a piece of gift wrap, poor and friendless gift wrap,
Bitter, broken gift wrap, lying in the bin.
But now here comes a baby, with tiny, chubby hands.
She takes me out, she smiles at me. Yes, someone understands!
Her eyes are bright. She hugs me. Just see her happy grin!
Oh I’m a piece of gift wrap, fun and crinkly gift wrap,
Lovely, precious gift wrap, rescued from the bin.
