Bionic Cupid

It's said that Cupid crashed to Earth. His bones all left for broken. That God himself said he'd rebuild in parts as much as spoken. He gave him two bionic legs and one bionic arm. Then added on a robot eye to place it there for charm. Now if this sounds familiar and this tale less than truth. Forget about Steve Austin that you learned about in youth. The truth is that for Cupid's sake God also gave him teeth. Big metal ones to wrap around his mouth just like a wreath. And now dear Cupid longs to eat the boys and girls he meets. For Bionic Cupid's now a monster and lovers now his sweets.
