Welcome to McExistence, may I take your order?

I’ll take a Happy Life
with tons of friends
and…
no bad hair days, war
bullies, disease,
homework to ignore,
crime, racism–

Is that all ma’am?

No, I want more.
Could you put a little extra
time to have fun?
Make problems disappear
when the day is done?

I’m not sure ma’am…

Well, at least try.
I want a perfect world!

Uh, ma’am? That’s something you can’t buy.
