Electrical Love
Advances in electronics are booming.
A romance of the heart leaves you swooning.
Put the two of them together and you’ll see
just how exciting this new idea can be.
A gadget that can produce love in your heart.
A love so strong you will never part.
If your sweetheart does likewise too.
There is a great future for the two of you.
The only hitch, both must be willing.
Otherwise, the results are chilling.
Like loving a doorknob. Nothing gained.
No reciprocation need be explained.
If both are willing, then heavenly bliss.
But, is there really any need for this?
Do things the old fashioned way.
Let nature take its course in every way.
Do you need a machine to stimulate you?
We’re not talking dildos here, you fool.
We’re talking affairs of the heart.
A romance where nothing will tear us apart.
What happens if the batteries run low?
Or, does one jolt cover the entire show?
Could a power failure change your behavior?
Could your feelings begin to waver?
There is only one thing I can say.
Pay your power bill right away.
