Some Disassembly Required

After Emily stopped the metal giant

With a clever logical trick

(you know the one:

“Everything I tell you is a lie...”,

can’t believe the robot fell for it)

It fell for real, right across the pond

and Ma Cille’s henhouse.

Emily went off to the capital,

Got a medal, lucrative speaking engagements,

Left her big sister, me,

To clean up the mess.

Turned out the Chinese government

Submitted the high bid.

After I restored the damage,

I could afford college;

Gonna major in cybernetics,

NOT Education,

As Auntie Belle suggested.

I had enough babysitting for a lifetime

With bratty Em.
