Hands are very prominent in Zappa's cover art.

Songs or tracks mentioning hands

Also of note is the phrase "Hands Up!", which can be heard on the tracks Toads Of The Short Forest, German Lunch and Tiny Sick Tears. In the film Baby Snakes (The Film) the phrase can also be heard from a toy police car.
