Sometimes Lemon Law can't be a remedy to such bad choice of a car. In choosing a vehicle one must be very critical and meticulous and this goes with choosing the people to trust. When their kind words of public service and promises are so refreshing to the ear, we get easily enticed, casting our votes for that one great name (as we thought to be) only to find out the defects of personality in the end. The only thing we tell ourselves is: No Fix!)
Lemon
Breaking brakes, no test drives,
No Lemon!
Call and break some hearing drums and tell you:
Get Orange, fresh?!
Such new Makes- twisted time:
Outdated or Released or Satisfied?
When foundation has been long old and rusty,
How can brand new set to start?
Exhaust! and it spits up all trash hidden from the inside.
Shows true color, the color of rust.
Shows true smell, the smell of rust.
Fallacy now serves such purpose,
that new can't always be new,
how aesthetic can't just be for shiny
when not qualified and internally satisfied.
No substitutes. Break it or leave it, to throw it.
