Reptile Woman As Black Swan

Reptile woman was a happy black swan.
Dancing on a stage that glitter was on.
She thought she was pretty and dainty too.
She’s awful one guy said, she belongs in a zoo.

Don’t be so mean, another replied.
She is a reptile with a natural glide.
She’s light on her toes, and entertaining too.
Reptile Woman threw him her old ballet shoe.

She’s daring and dashing, and she does not make a mistake!
She’s the star of the show said her manager, Sharon McQuake.
Reptile woman was a happy black swan.
Dancing on a stage that glitter was on.
