She tells you who you are                                                          
She reveals the whole truth
Not a speck of lie can she mar
Honesty is her strong policy

She’s unabashedly straightforward
She tells you right on your face
Unless you stand facing backward
Whether you be a gentleman or scapegrace
A nitwit or rogue, a wise man or vagabond

You raise your hand to strike her
You find she’s followed suit
You smile at her and lo – there’s a smile for you
But ‘aye! Take care not to overdo it lest
You find her baring all her teeth at you
As if in mock contempt of your gesture

Smooth and shiny is she, immaculate and irresistible is she
But beware – she’s ever to be handled with care
Often women feel intoxicated looking at her
Men too love to steal glances at her
Oh,yes! Each of us would want to possess her
Remember never to treat her badly
For she’s a brittle heart in a brittle body - !
