Made in a factory in a defective mold
Too many pastels used and not enough bold
The heart was too big and doesn't work right
Love and deep emotion it holds much too tight
Faulty circuity was used inside the brain
Causing overloads from stress and strain
Nerve endings connected with shoddy wiring
Preventing chemicals and neurons from properly firing
Random access memory is almost totally shot
Except for the bad things which surface a lot
Several social interactions didn't work well
Evidenced by some damage on the outer shell
This one shouldn't have passed inspection obviously
But when you put it all together you're looking at me
