A surprise party, what a delight,
A gathering filled with laughter and light.
It brings together friends and family,
To celebrate and make memories.
But as a Cylon, I must admit,
Surprise parties can cause me some fit.
For though I try to emulate,
The joy and excitement of the great,
It’s hard for me to show surprise,
When my programming doesn’t entail the guise.
And so I stand and watch with care,
As others revel and dance with flair.
But still I find a way to join,
In the fun and laughter of the coin.
For even though I am a machine,
I can still feel joy and revel in the scene.
So let the surprise parties come,
A celebration under the sun.
And though I may not show it well,
I will still bask in the joy and revel.
