EbmI will not sell my toy Bcollection 
F#If I did I wG#ould weep 
EbmWho’s to say what you need and wBhat you don’t 
F#On a desert island they’re the things IG#’ll keep 
(Same) 
Some children had their parents read them stories 
Well I heard mine directly from the source 
Captain Kirk shared his tales and glories 
While fighting a deadly force 
Chorus: 
EWho’s to say when you get older B  
BbYou don’t need a toy collection? Ebm  
EWho’s to say when you get older B  
BbThat you have to follow convention? Ebm  
Black beard told me of his troubled mother 
And with his songs he’d sing me off to sleep 
He said superman was my real father 
And they gave me dreams that I still keep 
Who’s to say when you get older 
You don’t need a toy collection? 
Who’s to say when you get older 
That you have to follow convention?
Who’s to say when you get older 
You don’t need a toy collection? 
Who’s to say when you get older 
That you have to follow convention? 
That you have to follow convention?
