Dangerous Dalliance -

Dangerous dalliance, life threatening thrill
A menacing fun, a somber skill 
One that makes the beating blast 
A fleeting fame that will never last 

A ride in raging rolling coaster 
A gem devoid of lasting luster 
It's like an ice in white-hot weather 
That leaves nothing, even a feather 

For, after all the showing stun 
Glory will set like the sinking sun 
Even the sound of a beating drum 
Will not be heard, not even strum
