Bare as the day
Such magnificent pistons
Hidden steam and glisten
When shaved down in such a way
As to better examine
The streamline and sheen
With luxurious gleam
Like the sparkle of salmon
Swimming upstream
Such magnificent pistons
Hidden steam and glisten
When shaved down in such a way
As to better examine
The streamline and sheen
With luxurious gleam
Like the sparkle of salmon
Swimming upstream
Strong like a cabin
Or the posts that contribute
An attempt to distribute
With less give than a javelin
The weight in proportion
But with all the great flair
And yet not to compare
Without squint or distortion
A sleek marble column that cost half a fortune
Or at least it's fair share
Since the days of extortion
This primitive torture
To lure the debaucher
Even using a portion
Exposing the base
In single or pair
Guiding glimpse to full stare
Making chaste law make haste
For the trickle of wine or the parts of a chair
Ask most, it's a waste
Whether ebony, caramel or the tint of plain paste
When handled with care
Take them out on a tear
If you've got em' - flaunt in good taste
