| 歌曲 | Put away forbidden playthings |
| 歌手 | Elvis Costello |
| 专辑 | Costello: My Flame Burns Blue |
| Put away forbidden playthings | |
| Amusements and distractions | |
| And dismantle the contraption and carry it away | |
| In time as beauty dissolves into glamour | |
| It slips from your heart and falls under the hammer. | |
| Put away forbidden playthings... | |
| And never return to pluck out that jewel | |
| Or find the thrill that slumbers still | |
| While suffering the dream of disobeying. | |
| Put away forbidden playthings... |
