You should really get a refund
That thing's clearly broken
Something's not quite right
And nothing but lies it has spoken

That mirror is defective
Something's definitely wrong
It shows you someone weak
I see someone strong

I think I see the problem
Perhaps the ***** in the armor
It seems it was too much to handle
Because you're quite the charmer

There's the brightest of smiles
That can light up a room
Just one look at it now
Can banish all your gloom

I see an elegance too
One that's glory is unmatched
But the poor thing couldn't take it
And now it needs patched

So it's backwards, you see
And it only shows pain
It's supposed to reflect
but it's been given too much strain

Too much beauty it's seen
Almost abuse that it's taken
And the beauty is true
so don't be mistaken

So do keep it in mind
When it shows you it's deceits
It's not doing it's job
And clearly it cheats

It's true beauty you have
That could go unspoken
But you should really get a refund
'Cause that thing's clearly broke
