"Wind-Up Toy" is the twelfth and final track on Alice Cooper's nineteenth studio album Hey Stoopid (1991).
Guitar player Joe Satriani makes a guest appearance on the track.
In the song, we learn that he is imprisoned in a lunatic hospital and that his only friends are the insects, rats and his toys on the floor.
It might be that his parents rejected him; Steven feels that he never had the chance to be a young boy and that he grew up too fast.
Because of this, he acts like a child and probably thinks that he still is one: It is also hinted that Steven still is haunted by the nightmare from Alice Cooper's 1975 album Welcome to My Nightmare, and possibly also the Curator from the album: After the song ends, a little girl's voice can faintly be heard calling "Steven!"
