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 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 never let him go and
|
i'll never be alone go (x4)
|
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 didnt think so but im 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'm losing
|
my confidence
|
i want it (x4)
|
i want to (x4)
|
i want you (x4)
|
i want a (x4)
|
coin operated boy.

|
|
And if i had a star to wish on,
|
for my life i cant 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
|
isnt that the point that is why i want a...
|
|
coin operated boy
|
with a pretty coin operated voice
|
saying that he loves me
|
that hes thinking of me
|
straight and to the point
|
that is why i want
|
a coin operated boy.
