If you don't like Lego, then we can't be friends
An honest requirement for meaningful friendships
If you don’t like Lego, then we can’t be friends.
Not during the week, or even weekends.
What would we talk about? How the temperature’s chilled?
Not how the Batwing was so hard to build?
Perhaps you think we could discuss current affairs.
Not how the Police Station has so many stairs?
Maybe sport is your thing, baseball or soccer?
But if you want something challenging, try building that chopper!
Getting Taylor Swift tickets makes you go manic.
I just spent my whole pay cheque to buy the Titanic.
You’re saving your money, to buy your own place?
Well, I can build a house, that flies into space.
If I’m looking kinda sleepy, I’ve not been out on the town,
But this late-night construction is wearing me down.
You’ve got a wife, or a husband, or significant other?
To afford this addiction, I still live with my mother.
Star Wars, Creator, and other fun stuff
Your blank stare says it all, please don’t try to bluff.
Let’s end it right here, so you don’t get hurt anymore.
But can you look for this piece on your way out the door?
