Nothing But Grace Valentine

I've got to send my double to the moon
For re-education and re-deployment
He's disobedient and insubordinate
He bullies me with scorn
And cutting contempt
When I try to reason him to calm
When he cries on my shoulder
Repeating he's a failure
And we both break down
In sobs and laughter
I keep telling him the same
Old story over and over
The one about the lame blind man
Who had no one to help him to the pool
