Do you like it?
It’s cool isn’t it
It’s very rare
And special
I bought it in that shop
Across from my office
I work in the city you know
Big job I have
Power
Responsibilities
My bonus is more
Than your annual salary.
Hard work pays off
Of course there is
An element of luck
Right place at the right time
And looks count too
Some of it I owe to my elegance
And my high heels
But I look after myself you know
I’m fit
Super fit
I run for charity, it’s important
To care for others
Isn’t it
I talk about that in my podcast
I have a podcast
It’s good, very good
I have followers
I’m quite well known you know
And appreciated
But that’s because I give back in a way
With my time
And my expertise.
Yes I’ll have another one
Large please, thank you
Actually, Champagne please
