Napoleon the Great

A person in a fancy room

Beautiful Lady With a subtle hint of gloom
The man is Napoleon
She with her red silky hair Standing like a lion

And her skin so fair
With the stare of the devil’s daughter Napoleon the great

There are many men who sought her Many people hate
The man from France

Her ocean blue eyes And he likes to prance

Which are filled with lies

Falling for her will lead to your demise Conquered half of Europe

Yet she can see your temptation in And gave people hope

your eyes Charged into battle
Had humble beginnings with cattle

Many men call her hot He has his arm in his coat

But they don't realize Didn't like to gloat
That in her web you will be caught Defeated the Germans many times

Your fall she craves a lot But never committed any crimes

With her red luscious lips Went from zero to hero

And her long eyelashes Didn't let his ego grow

Her beautiful smile He didn't like to wait
And that is Napoleon the Great
Will push you off the cliff Parth Rana

So don't fall for the devil’s daughter

There were many who sought her

But they never reached
So don't, don't fall for her or you'll be leashed
