Black Patent and Sparkles - In Its Own Words

I place a velvet top hat upon you chilly head
No buttons for your shirt (you cold hearted flirt)
You wear sequins instead

And in your twiggy grasp, no silly broom will do
I give you a guitar (you rock star)
To rock the cold night through

Black patent and sparkles
Shimmer in the snow
Like a million spotlights
Shining on the mistletoe
Black patent and sparkles
To melt your frosty heart
Now to make you a companion
Another little cold and lusty tart

Embellishments in black upon your flesh so white
Coal creates your nose (to match your painted toes)
And your eyes that match the night

The scarf around your neck becomes the envy of the crowd
But I’ll protect you from them all (among suburban sprawl)
While the sun says I’m allowed

Black patent and sparkles
Shimmer in the snow
Like a million tiny lights
Shining on the mistletoe
Black patent and sparkles
To melt your frosty heart
Now to make you a companion
Another little cold and lusty tart

Playing in the snow’s my favorite part
