Lady Ferrari

=======================
Roses are red, violets are blue
my Lady Ferrari, my joy, my freu
your body so shiny, your four lovely legs
that spin into motion, on diesel dregs
when I turn the keys and lower the brakes
your large engine revvs up, and trembles and shakes
your eighty watt eyes, pierce my soul
I want to impress you, by playing the role
of a battered and bothered and destitute man
bereft of a motor, with just a tin can
a broken Impala, a Jaguar, a Rolls
just three things to ride in, and pockets with holes
Oh Lady Ferrari, come save my day
Make all those bothersome things go away
Release me, I'll drive you in sheer ecstasy
I'll love you for ever, so temporarily
I'll keep you away, in a weany chalet
so one will know, that I love you so
and every morning, that dawns in our lives
we'll go over mountains and silvery drives
we'll ride up the country, and write up our tales
on burning roads, in smokeless trails
you give me advice that's so very wise
you're trained to be silent, and look very nice
My Lady Ferrari, there's no one like you
we make such a pair, that all of those cars
with vivid colors and expensive stars
pale to your white and shimmery coat
and your maintenance bills, of special note
your thin multi-lips, you stick-shifty arms
your silky smooth brakes, your magnetic palms
Oh Lady, my Lady I'm crazy for you
your roses are red, my violets are blue
Our love is a garden, it'll go very far
until I trade you for a driverless car
