The Doll

I haven't a heart and I haven't a brain.

But I am a beauty just the same.

Many do not want me, but all the girls do.

I'm rather fragile, so handle me with care.

And pick me up gently if you dare.

I have not a life, but those who own me do.

And will love me no matter what I do.

So if I fall and crack my head I will survive.

Because a girl named Pamela will keep me alive.
