In the pink

My pink guitar, the new love of my life

I’ll stroke and stretch your strings with my fingers

My pick will pick you up just like a wife

On the threshold; let each long lick linger

My salmon pink star, electric singer

Accompany me when my feeble voice

Attempts a duet, plug in amp, tongue a

Hillman Imp to your flash Rock n Rolls Royce

I’ll never smash you, at least not by choice

No Pete Townshend treatment, trouble or strife

No setting alight, Hendrix-style singes

I’ll stay faithful, not just one of the boys

To you my axe that’s sharper than a knife

Clear as a bell pulled by expert ringers

This is from last night. Haven't played it yet coz I was babysitting. Hope to have my first go on it later tonight...
