Battery

BATTERY

Red ruby on positive +
Black leather on negative – I want silk
Brown curl cord hair
Brown plug eyes
If you handle with care
With one big surprise

Under this old cold hood its me
Not sharp as a box but curvy
Now will you come here and see
I need a good change from you
Don’t want to run out of energy
Not just a jump will do

Don’t forget the spark plugs now
You and I will meet and touch ground
I don’t need a service guy
I want to met eye to eye

Now I can turn on the radio
And touch you like so
We don’t need very much money
Keep on charging me Honey
I need all the warranty
Just like a battery with a life time guarantee
