lyrics
Where's my opposable thumb
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Who has entrapped me in plastic
My knees and elbows are numb
Right out of the box with hopes and feelings
I'm a star drop from the sky
Put in this tight spot to accept harsh reality
And I still can't figure out why
There's an aching that burns my plastic heart
There's a question in my mind
Where's my opposable thumb (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Where is the promise you made me (made me)
No sight of my promised land
Something's gone wrong with my dealings
And I'm left with just one card
So I'm putting all my bets in this nonsensicality
And I'm letting down my guard
Can I trust that you won't melt my small toy heart?
Can you truly be so kind?
Where's my opposable thumb (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Where is the promise you made me (made me)
No sight of my promised land
Where's my opposable thumb
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Who has entrapped me in plastic
My knees and elbows are numb
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Who has entrapped me in plastic
My knees and elbows are numb
Right out of the box with hopes and feelings
I'm a star drop from the sky
Put in this tight spot to accept harsh reality
And I still can't figure out why
There's an aching that burns my plastic heart
There's a question in my mind
Where's my opposable thumb (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Where is the promise you made me (made me)
No sight of my promised land
Something's gone wrong with my dealings
And I'm left with just one card
So I'm putting all my bets in this nonsensicality
And I'm letting down my guard
Can I trust that you won't melt my small toy heart?
Can you truly be so kind?
Where's my opposable thumb (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Where is the promise you made me (made me)
No sight of my promised land
Where's my opposable thumb
Oh, where's my opposable thumb
Who has entrapped me in plastic
My knees and elbows are numb
