  Any lyrics off the top of your heads [that you've heard - no Googling] that directly 
  or indirectly refer to hands or something (only)  hands can do? 
    I can mostly only think of 80s songs that do (and Seconds and The Cutter allude 
  very well to hands, IMHO) but i don't think it was some trend then. 
   
  Nothing to struggle over, just whatever  comes to mind. thanks.

  2 of the better allusions to hands, IMO

'Save me..
