Your Electric Lady

Your Electric lady
I am your electric lady
You've wired all of me
I am your electric wheel chair racer
I am your every heart beat pacer
I am your puzzle of 500 pills

But I'll be 100 tomorrow
Put away in a nursing home
Where its illegal to light candles
You make a cardiac case against ice cream
You keep me alive with all your machines

My hall smells like urine
So you seldom visit me
I wear diapers
That are not changed regularly
My food is bland and tasteless

To put it all bluntly
I don't care about healthy
Why are you saving me
Let me die quietly
And enter a better world
