It did not come from this country
That is plain to see
But how in the world did they create an air bag
That looks just like me?
And what kind of force would it take to deploy
This gynormus device of protection
That was so flatteringly and imaginatively designed
As a preventative to my ejection?
What stares there would be from the rescuing crews
After this catastrophe
I suppose the crowds would come from all points
And laugh hysterically!
So, I must insist to the makers of this, this device
To refrain, desist, immediately bring to a close
Making this car’s protective apparatus
That looks like me from navel to nose
Sooner or later I expect
Reparations to quickly pursue
Don’t you dare let your guard down
The next one looks just like you!
