Analysis of The Only FIx



I felt sad
So I called Bob The Builder
He told me, "we can fix this,
Just cut your wrists."

I felt fat
so I reached out to Barbie
"its no big deal," she told me
"just skip a couple meals a week."

I felt unloved
so I called Barney
"I love you, you love me."
but of course that's not my destiny.

i felt tired
but getting a hold of Thomas The Train
was a hell of a wait
but within time  
he took to me a place
where i will no longer be a waste of space.
