| The Dresden Dolls – Mandy Goes to Med School Lyrics | 18 years ago |
| I agree with charlieSometimes - the song *is* gleefully perverse! I find myself belting out the lyrics when listening to the cd, even though I know how disturbing the subject matter is. To me, that's evidence of damn good writing and performing. | |

| I like the Doll's version, but the late Jeff Buckley really nailed it. If you ever have a chance to hear his version, I recommend it. | |
| The Dresden Dolls – Coin-Operated Boy Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Why not go to the source on this one? www/dresdendolls.com has a boatload of Q&A between fans and Amanda: 1) She's bi-sexual, not gay. 2) She clearly states "Coin Operated Boy" is about lonliness, not a vibrator or dildo. If "Coin Operated Boy" was about intimate hardware, you can bet your ass Amanda would've had no problem saying so. This is the woman who wrote and sings "First Orgasm," about masturbating while sitting on her windowsill. She's not known for pulling punches. |
