Netta Barzillai - TOY



NETTA FEVER!!!

I have to admit, the first time I heard Toy" I didn't really like it. It sounded too loud and chaotic, too over-the-top, but then I heard it again, and again and somehow it all works perfectly, mainly thanks to Netta Barzillai's powerful voice and persona. Netta brought something fresh and new to "Rising Star" and her performances were always the highlight of the show. My favorite comment by the stunned judges was Static's who said: "I just don't know how to deal with this, bro, what's going on here? Where am I? I'm in the future, bro, what is this? What's going on here?" Despite her popularity, it was still a surprise that she actually won the show and was chosen to represent the country in the Eurovision. In a recent interview she said that her goal when coming to the show was to reach as many hearts as possible and to inspire others, and this is what gave her the strength to be so different and 'out of the box'. With 4 million views (and counting!) Netta has certainly reached many hearts and I'm proud to be represented by someone so original, creative, talented and fierce!

Look at me, I'm a beautiful creature
I don't care about your "modern-time preachers"
Welcome boys, too much noise, I will teach you
Pam pam pa hoo, Turram pam pa hoo

Hey, I think you forgot how to play
My teddy bear's running away
The Barbie got something to say: Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! My "Simon says" leave me alone
I'm taking my pikachu home
You're stupid just like your smart phone

Wonder woman, don't you ever forget
You're divine and he's about to regret
His baka-bakum, bak-bak bakumbai...

I'm not your toy
You stupid boy
I'll take you down
I'll make you watch me
Dancing with my dolls
On the MadaBaka Beat
Not your toy!

A-A-A-Ani Lo buba!*
Don't you go and play with my boy!
A-A-A-Ani Lo buba!
Don't you go and play...Shake!
Kulului, Kulului, Ah, wedding bells ringing
Kulului, Kulului, Ah, money man bling-bling
I don't care about your 'stefa'** , baby
Pam pam pa hoo, Turram pam pa hoo

Wonder woman, don't you ever forget
You're divine and he's about to regret
His baka-bakum...bak-bak bakumbai...

I'm not your toy
You stupid boy
I'll take you down I'll make you watch me
Dancing with my dolls
On the MadaBaka beat
Not your toy!

*I'm not your doll
**wads of cash
