I'm listening to Coin-operated boy.....by the dresden dolls...and next is Girl Anachronism by the same group

Quote:

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 a want
a coin-operated boy

made of plastic and elastic
he is rugged and long lasting
who could ever, ever ask for more?
love without complications galore
many shapes and weights to choose 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 smittener
with my sad picture of girl getting bitterer
can you extract me
from my plastic fantasy?
i didn't think so
but i'm still convinceable
will you persist that after i bet you
a billion dollars that i'll never love you?
and will you persist that after i kiss you
good-bye 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 could 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
