|
I made a machine |
|
Called The Boy Least Likely To. |
|
It feeds me shortbread biscuits, |
|
And it makes my little dreams come true. |
|
It thinks for me, |
|
And everything I used to do it does for me, |
|
It's made of aluminum, |
|
And it runs off pencil batteries. |
|
I know that it makes me happy, |
|
But something about it frightens me. |
|
I made a machine |
|
To make my life easier, |
|
But it's made it more complicated |
|
Than it ever was before. |
|
I programmed it |
|
To simulate the feelings that I used to get. |
|
It reads me bedtime stories, |
|
And it makes me feel human again. |
|
It doesn't have to understand |
|
What it's doing, |
|
And it does everything |
|
A human being can. |
|
It stores my thoughts and feelings |
|
In its database. |
|
I tell it things, |
|
When I'm feeling sad. |
|
Sometimes it the only |
|
Real friend that I have, |
|
And that's what makes me sad. |
|
I made a machine |
|
Called The Boy Least Likely To. |
|
It has lots of switches and buttons, |
|
But I don't know what they do. |
|
I know it can't |
|
Understand the intricacies of my heart, |
|
But when I cuddle up to it |
|
It comes to life in my arms. |
|
I know that it makes me happy, |
|
But something about it frightens me |
