BIGGER TOYS

[Intro]
When I was a kid,
other boys wanted new toys.
I wanted to know how things worked.
My older sister had dolls.
Sometimes I took them apart.
Don’t ask.
But the toys I really loved?
Excavators. Trucks. Heavy machines.
Today… they’re just a little bigger.
[Verse 1]
I grew up with dirt on my shoes,
toy diggers in my hands,
trucks on the floor, machines in my head.
I wanted to be a soldier.
So I became one.
I gave orders.
People listened.
Not because I shouted,
but because I usually had a plan.
A problem shows up?
I look for the solution.
Pressure comes?
I stay calm.
That’s always been me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dirty hands, clear mind,
heavy steel, perfect timing.
I don’t need to talk too much.
Confidence sounds better when it’s quiet.
[Chorus]
I traded little toys for bigger ones,
now the engines sound deeper than before.
Excavators, forklifts, rubber ducks,
loading shovels, cherry pickers, scissor lifts.
The bigger the machine,
the more I feel alive.
What can I say?
I’ve always liked big things.
Big machines.
Big plans.
Big ambition.
[Verse 2]
I’ve got licences for different machines,
but I’m still not finished.
There’s always another ticket,
another machine,
another level.
Give me something new,
I want to learn it.
Give me something bigger,
I want to drive it.
I don’t like standing still.
Unless I’m parking the machine.
[Bridge]
I like risk.
Roulette spins,
my hand stays steady.
Cards hit the table,
I’m already thinking ahead.
Speed?
That’s my game.
One move.
Two moves.
Three.
Too late.
You’re still thinking.
I’ve already played.
[Verse 3]
I know what I want,
but I don’t need to prove it.
I can lead,
but I can listen.
I can take a risk,
but I know responsibility.
I can be serious,
and still make you laugh.
Ambition without arrogance.
Strength without noise.
Confidence without begging for attention.
That’s character.
[Chorus]
I traded little toys for bigger ones,
steel instead of plastic,
real roads instead of bedroom floors.
Excavators, forklifts, loading shovels,
machines that make the ground shake.
The bigger they are,
the more I want them.
Maybe that says something about me.
Maybe I just like power.
Maybe I like control.
Maybe I like knowing
that something this big
moves when I touch it.
[Break — low voice]
And women?
They don’t need a man
who keeps saying how strong he is.
They can see it.
In the way he walks.
The way he looks at them.
The way he makes decisions.
The way he stays calm.
The way he knows what he wants
without trying too hard.
[Final Chorus]
Bigger toys.
Bigger plans.
Bigger dreams.
Same boy.
Just stronger now.
I still want more.
More skills.
More licences.
More machines.
Because ambition never says,
“That’s enough.”
It says:
What’s next?
[Outro]
When I was a kid,
I played with excavators.
Now I operate them.
I wanted to lead.
Now I know
the hardest person to lead
is yourself.
And tomorrow?
Tomorrow I’ll learn something new.
Because the biggest machine
is always still ahead of me.
[Whisper]
And maybe that’s why
they like watching me work.
