Roshni

I got a new guitar.  It’s small.  Doesn’t sound great, but it’s fun because it is small.  So I bought it in to the office to show some folks.  At one point during the day, I went for coffee with my “friend” Roshni.  We parted ways before making it back to the office, but when I made it back, I saw her darting away from my computer.
Sure enough, she’d sent email from my computer as a prank.  I grabbed the guitar, and started working on this song.

Roshni, Roshni
You are not my friend
I’m taking my computer
When I leave here again

I’ve made too many offers
To buy lunch for the team
It happens every time that I forget to lock my screen

Oh, Roshni, how can you act so bad
You’ve taken away what little pride I had
Oh Roshni, your heart is black as night
I don’t think you even know what’s wrong and what is right

Roshni, Roshni
You never show a trace
Of all your malice
Upon your pretty face

I’m not the first
And I know there will be more
To fall down under the fury when you roar

Oh, Roshni, how can you act so bad
You’ve taken away what little pride I had
Oh Roshni, your heart is black as night
I don’t think you even know what’s wrong and what is right

Oh, Roshni, how can you act so bad
You’ve taken away what little pride I had
Oh Roshni, your heart is black as night
I don’t think you even know what’s wrong and what is right

Oh, Roshni, how can you act so bad
You’ve taken away what little pride I had
Oh Roshni, your heart is black as night
I don’t think you even know what’s wrong and what is right
