hands (from Hands: the Musical)
quick,
take a fast sec to think
'bout what your hands are doin'
without your hands, your life might be
on the fast track to ruin
hands can pick things up
and then drop them just as low
hands can point you at which way
that you think you should go
oh
there's so much we need to understand
about…
hands can grab a hanky and then
use it as a tissue
if you somehow forgot your hands
I'm sure that they would miss you
some folks have no hands and
they adapt their way around that
sometimes your hands see coffee beans
and think "I'd like to ground that"
I will sound that
alarm at the best of my command
for hands
if you and your hands
are at the san andreas fault
you could use your hands
and do an awesome somersault
hey!
hands can make you happy, son,
and hands can make you sad
you've got to be careful
with your hands when you are mad
hands have their own language, yes,
and hands can do the hula
some hands can be sexy
and make you a lotta moola
you can trust me all the way
you know I'd never fool ya
as you'll recall that "downtown" song
was once sung by petula
hands can warm you up sometimes
and hands can make you cooler
if my pal leonard cohen was here
he'd tell you hallelujah
boo yah
man man man
ain't they oh so grand
so how 'bout a hand
to hands!!!!
