The Princes Tale

The prince was riding quickly through the raging storm
While the princess in the tower watched TV and ate popcorn
He'd had a premonition that something wasn't right
He knew he had to see his love before the end of night

The princess chanelled surfed and called a friend in the same town
Her frend was going out to dance "would you like to come around?"
Come around
Come around
A bunch of us are dancing
You ought to come around

The prince gets to the castle but the king says she's not home
She took her silver carriage and drove to the disco
She's gone downtown with Sally, Jesse; Bill and the Black Knight
Hearing this the prince remounts and heads into the night

The Black Knight was his nemesis from a kingdom in the west
The prince now fears his lady is a damsel in distress
In distress
in distress
The prince now fears his lady is a damsel in distress

The prince gets to the dance club and runs in through the door
He sees the Black Knight and the princess slow dancing on the floor
He goes up to the Black Knight and tosses down his glove
But one look at the fair princess and he knows he's lost his love

His head hangs down, he walks outside into the pouring rain
He knows that he'll never see his fair love again
Love again
Love again
He knows that he will never see his fair love again
