Have you ever wondered when the lights go down
If the toys in the store get to get around?
You may think I'm crazy, panicked by fright
I swear by God Almighty, it happened one night
Happened in a store downtown
I got myself locked in, watched and waited anticipated
And enterprising heros in full flight
And Batman swings by the candle light
And supermans laughing at the wonderland zoo
I think I'd rather be this way

I wanna be connected
Plastic Dreamer
Connected
Plastic Dreamer

At the stroke of twelve it all came to life
And He-Man chased the man with his wife
Darth Vader shows he's all dressed in drag
Reveals what's inside I thought he was bad
And the teddy bears parading on the cold stone floor
The rabbits made love as I watched an applauded
Shouted more more more
Burning down the zoo - and Kremlin flies around with his spaced out crew

I wanna be connected
Plastic Dreamer
Connected
Plastic Dreamer
Connected, Plastic Dreamer
Connected, Plastic Dreamer
I can see you, I can see you
Plastic Dreamer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Plastic Dreamer
I wanna be connected

Mammy, they left me
On my own and I'm lonely
Happened in a store downtown
Don't let the box stop you'll lose me
Have you ever wondered when the lights go down
