| Seductress or Siren? |
| ...which came first? or should that be who? |
| Oh oh no, oh oh yes, If you hadn't noticed yet, I am what I am, A subcontinental seductress... Whether I am on a stage, At the illustrious Smithsonian, Or on the dance floor of Freddie's, Drinking juice and gin... My brown skin shines Like a newborn fawn, To my almond shaped eyes, You are inevitably drawn.... With each mudra, And shringar-ic expression, I will become, Your new cultural obsession... If you didn't know where India and Pakistan, Lay on the map, Now I will teach you, with my ghungaroos going ratta tat tat.... Tehreema is the head seductress, that's why she watches what we eat, Limber and graceful, She is quick on her feet.... Her husband Bill, Is in charge of the financing, Why would it be a wonder then, That he has no time for dancing? They have a son Mahu, Who is small and narrow, When he is bored with dance, He can be found playing Pharoah... Praneetha will complete, An impeccable jathiswaram, When she is finished, You will feel all tender and garam.... Carrie and Kimberly, Monica and Nicole too, Are our European sister seductresses, But by the way Monica eats, who knew? Ayse is the only seductress, From the Middle East, Don't tell me that you didn't already know, That she is a sexy beast! And Steven and Keith, Well, they seduce in their own way, If you hadn't guessed by the way they act, Let me spell it out for you, they are gay! David and Marcos, Part time seductors though they are, Distinguished and gentlemanly, We won't let them go too far... Ileana seduces from the Caribbean Sea, How does she do it? Make those glamorous costumes, For you and for me? As for me, Radha, I am a seductress only part of the time, The other hours of my day, I am busy collecting data and doing 80 on I-95... |
