The new Swan Lake


  1. A beautiful swan by day

  2. The lady Odette by night

  3. To find love is all she'd pray

  4. Unfortunately she possessed no right

  5. Her love must be her equal in color

  6. But that her love lacked

  7. So she believes she must choose another

  8. Because her love is black

  9. However she does not quit

  10. She brings herself to marry him

  11. She congregates to admit it

  12. Her news surprised them

  13. Now she knows she is autonomous

  14. All it took was to marry her opposite
