Coin-operated boy sitting on the shelf he is just a toy
Am C
But I turn him on and he comes to life

Automatic joy that is why I want a coin-operated boy

G
And I'll never be alone not with my coin-operated boy

This bridge was written to make you feel smitten-er
C D Bm C
With my sad picture of girl getting bitter-er
C D Bm C
Can you extract me from my plastic fantasy
C D Bm C
I didn't think so but I'm still convincible
C D Bm C
Will you persist even after I bet you
C D Bm C
A billion dollars that I'll never love you
C D Bm C
And will you persist even after I kiss you
C D Bm A
Goodbye for the last time will you keep on trying
C A C A
To prove it I'm dying to lose it I'm losing
C A C A C
My confidence I want it I want it I want it I want it
