Because what I have to give
is made with cheap plastic
and poorly molded in some
Asian sweat shop.

It's painted with lead,
colored with cyanide.
Dirty, useless poisoned
toy, without the batteries included.

You're right not to want this.
I'm wrong to even try.

I'll keep it to my lonesome.
Inside it's ivory box it will stay,
laced up corset tight.


I said I loved him.
He said he wanted real love.
