There's a place I go
When I am far away
There's a T.V. show
And I can play
Sometimes when a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
Oh, oh, oh
There's a picture book
With colour photographs
There's a comic strip
That makes me laugh
Sometimes away he takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
[Chorus (Repeated)]
Stories for boys
There's a place I go
And it's a part of me
There's a radio
And I will go
Sometimes a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
[Chorus (Repeated)]
When I am far away
There's a T.V. show
And I can play
Sometimes when a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
Oh, oh, oh
There's a picture book
With colour photographs
There's a comic strip
That makes me laugh
Sometimes away he takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
[Chorus (Repeated)]
Stories for boys

And I will go
Sometimes a hero takes me
Sometimes I don't let go
