Broken Fantasy by Bruno Pardo

 

Once upon a time, what a lie!

Once upon a time nothing happened

Once upon a time you were fooled

 

Once upon a time, fantasy unleashed

Making masses believe that true love did exist

 

Talking rats, animated trees

A crystal shoe that had to fit

Birds that sew and make a dress

For god’s sake, give me a rest.

 

A pale princess that ran away

A blond maid that couldn’t stay

A fire mermaid that couldn’t talk

Because she wished to finally walk

 

But with no effort they won

Won the prince, the castle and more

How they did it? I don’t know

I don’t care, I give up

 

Fairy Tales are just that

Delicious food that makes you fat

Just procure not to eat much

A bullshit-free diet that will last.
