lyrics

Hand doesn't get to have a say
What it wants to do
It acts in service
You think and your muscles move
The heart beats on
All the fibers contract
Hand never gets to tell
anyone how to act

Hand doesn't say a thing
while the day goes on
It can only manipulate
and wait for your intention
Legs and feet for transport
Mute stupid power
Waiting for the master
during normal working hours

(chorus)
I am only corporeal
with nothing of the spirit
I can make the music real
but I could never hear it
and as your third arm
I am your extra limb
Making no plans of my own
I only have your whim

The wheel never learns
where it is to go
its only duty is to turn
it only knows its role/roll
The lever that can move the world
cares not that it's needed
Without comment it does the work
no celebration on its succeeding

(chorus)
