Leave it outside in the sun
when I call they will not come
we paint his face up nicely
tie his hair up in a curl
paint it's lipstick bright red
wipe the drool up gently
not like all the others
just one of life's winners
made of something better
so throw the ball up into space
hold the phone up to its face
leave it outside in the rain
tie it up and pat it's limb
never speak of it again
