You're a beauty to the eye;
So smooth and shiny.
Such strong black armour,
For someone so tiny!
Your powers are magical;
You must be admired.
Please give me your promise,
That of you I won't tire!
You're such a good friend;
I need you so bad.
If they took you away,
I think I'd go mad!
"Excuse me, what did you say?
Oh! Why am I late?
Well I...NO, I'm not shaking,
No really! I feel great!
I guess I slept in;
No, it won't happen again.
You say I look pale?
Well it's probably just strain."
I'll take an aspirin;
Boy! Is my boss ever snooty!
Aww hell; I don't need an aspirin
Well maybe I'll ask my friend 'Beauty'
...My beautiful, shiny Black Beauty.
