The Dresden Dolls - Coin-Operated Boy

Coin operated boy
Sitting on the shelf
He is just a toy
But I turn him on and he comes to life
Automatic joy
That is why I want
A coin operated boy

Made of plastic and elastic
He is rugged and longlasting
Who could ever ever ask for more?
Love without complications galore
Many shapes and weights to chose from
I will never leave my bedroom
I will never cry at night again
Wrap my arms around him and pretend Coin operated boy
All the other real ones that I destroy
Cannot hold a candle to my new boy and I'll
Never let him go, and I'll never be alone,
And I'll never let him go,
And I'll never be alone, go,
And I'll never be alone, go,
And I'll never be alone, go,
And I'll never be alone, go, and I'll never be alone,
Not with my coin operated boy

This bridge was written to make you feel smitten
And with my sad picture of girl getting bitterer
Oh will you extract me from my plastic fantasy
I didn't think so, but I'm still convincible
Oh will you persist even after I bet you
A million dollars that I'll never love you
And will you persist even after I kiss you
Goodbye for the last time, will you keep on trying
To prove it I'm dying
To lose it, I'm losing my confidence
I want it, I want it, I want it, I want it,
I want to, I want to, I want to, I want to,
I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you,
I want a, I want a, I want a, I want a
Coin operated boy

And if I had a star to wish on
For my life I can't imagine
Any flesh and blood would be his match
I can even take him in the bath
Coin operated boy
He may not be real experienced with girls
But I know he feels like a boy should feel
Isn't that the point?
That is why I want a coin operated boy
With a pretty coin operated voice
Saying that he loves me, that he's thinking of me
Straight and to the point, that is why I want a
Coin operated boy
