The Toy Dolls are an English punk rock band that formed in 1979. Known for their humorous and lighthearted approach to the genre, the group achieved their greatest commercial success with a punk rendition of the children's novelty song "Nellie the Elephant," which became their sole UK hit. Their catalog is characterized by playful, comedic compositions with titles often featuring alliteration and absurdist humor, such as "Yul Brynner Was a Skinhead" and "My Girlfriend's Dad's a Vicar." The band's irreverent style and witty songwriting helped them stand out within the broader punk rock landscape.
