  • Black velveteen
    Simple and clean
    Oh what a bad machine
    Black velveteen

    Supple and plain
    The 21st century dream
    Ready to please
    Free from disease

    She's waiting on her knees
    It's not a sin
    Titanium skin
    Just take her for a spin

    Black velveteen
    Simple and clean
    Oh what a bad machine
    Black velveteen

    Supple and plain
    The 21st century dream
    Nice piece of kit
    Electronic clit

    Just sit down for a fit
    Ready to trip
    A guarantee hit
    She's all you ever wished

    Black velveteen don't give a damn she'll do dishes
    Black velveteen knows all the night spots in France
    Black velveteen's cat smells like strawberry kittens
    Black velveteen always is ready to dance

    She's ready to
    Black velveteen
    Simple and clean
    Oh what a bad machine

    Black velveteen
    Supple and plain
    The 21st century dream

    Black velveteen don't give a damn she'll do dishes
    Black velveteen knows all the night spots in France
    Black velveteen's cat smells like strawberry kittens
    Black velveteen always is ready to dance

    Yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yes she's ready to

    Black velveteen don't give a damn she'll do dishes
    Black velveteen knows all the night spots in France
    Black velveteen's cat smells like strawberry kittens
    Oh Yeah

    Black velveteen always is ready to dance
    Yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Oh yes she's ready to
    Black velveteen

    Simple and clean
    Oh what a bad machine
    Black velveteen
    Supple and plain

    The 21st century dream
    Black velveteen
    Simple and clean
    Oh what a bad machine

    Black velveteen
    Supple and plain
