The Lyrics
Start snapping fingers now...
Know there's something very strange
This guy has kept me rapt
He hangs out with the Addams
Family, he's "handicapped"
Doesn't really talk much
And then he has to "sign"
He's missed below the wrist
And hides in boxes all the time
And it's glove you bring
Nothing much to see
Just wear rings
Into palmistry
Right hand Thing
People are afraid of him
They don't quite understand
But when someone's in trouble he
Will always lend a hand
Fingers do the walking
As he scampers on the floor
He'll leap up to the handle
And open up the door
Handy, loves to cling
It seems like he can fly
Had a fling
Oh, those digits will surprise
Right hand Thing
This guy has kept me rapt
He hangs out with the Addams
Family, he's "handicapped"
Doesn't really talk much
And then he has to "sign"
He's missed below the wrist
And hides in boxes all the time
And it's glove you bring
Nothing much to see
Just wear rings
Into palmistry
Right hand Thing
People are afraid of him
They don't quite understand
But when someone's in trouble he
Will always lend a hand
Fingers do the walking
As he scampers on the floor
He'll leap up to the handle
And open up the door
Handy, loves to cling
It seems like he can fly
Had a fling
Oh, those digits will surprise
Right hand Thing

What's with the Addams Family theme today? This is great, Rick, though I confess I thought it was going to be about something else....555
:-) Very much what Kristof said..
I think Thing running free was the one thing (no pun intended) that disappointed me the most when the movie came, not that I had seen to many of the original series but from what I had seen I had always imagine Things as some sort of giant octopus/creature that we only got to see the hands of, and that was much creepier than the all brand new FX Thing.
And I'll third what Kristof and Phil said above, I was making up the comment "so you wrote this with just one hand" already when I saw the title. :-)
