Stephin Merritt - The Machine in Your Hand lyrics

[Produced by Stephin Merritt and Charles Newman] [Hook] I want to be the machine in your hand and go wherever you go Your every touch would be my command and I wouldn't be so slow We'd be together in Wonderland and I'd light you with my glow I want to be the machine in your hand and go wherever you go [Verse 1] I don't know why I love you You're not really a person More a gadget with meat stuck to it I see less and less of you As you worsen and worsen I think you're disappearing through it No doubt you're just ahead of the curve I only wish that I had the nerve to say [Hook] [Verse 2] You can hold me for hours Wouldn't that be terrific? We can feel our connection growing I'll have magical powers Only less scientific You and I will become all knowing Such a machine, what would it be worth? Sitck with me, kid, we'll conquer the earth [Hook]
