Old Clocks Run Off Acid Fluid and Batteries
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.
Zoe isn't your run of the mill kind of girl.
She's kind of well, to be blunt, different.
But she's okay with that.
Made of plastic and elastic
he is rugged and long lasting
who could 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 nights again
wrap my arms around him and pretend.
You see, she has this toy. Well, its
actually a doll. But those two sort
of go hand in hand, yes? He's pretty
much everything she's ever wanted
in aboy man.
coin operated boy
all the other real ones that I destro
cannot hold a candle to my new boy and I'll
never let him go and I'll never be alone
not with my coin operated boy.
He does all the tasks any other boy
should do. What with the, how shall I
put this delicately, intimacies that any
other boy can do. Even though he
doesn't always understand Zoee, she
finds him the best way to release all
the pent up anger that her thoughts will
emit into her complex brain.
this bridge was written to make you feel smitten
with my sad picture of girl getting bitter
can you extract me from my plastic fantasy
I didn't think so but I'm still convinceable
will you persist even after I bet you
a billion dollars that I'll never love you
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 want it
I want you
I want a coin operated boy.
But what happens, when her life,
one structured and stable and always
revolving around a certain, plastic something,
turns into a world of turmoil and a way
to extract oneself from the dangers and numbness
of a real world.
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.
She can't bring herself to even
look at the doll anymore, never
mind take him out and play.
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 his 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.
Welcome to the world of plastic
and fantasies, where everything
is as it should be. Normally.
I don't own The Dresden Doll's Coin Operated Boy.
=) The plot also isn't mine, per se. But the writing is.
