Rapunzel Rapunzel, Just Doesn't Care
You’ve heard of the knight,
He was the chivalrous sort.
That is why he was chosen
Out of all the king’s court
To rescue the princess
From the terrible tower
Where she was placed by a witch
of immeasurable power
The clever man waited
Until the wicked witch was gone
And the dragon she left
Began finally to yawn
He snuck to the tower
And at the base he cried,
“I’ve come as your rescuer
My beautiful bride!”
The princess, confused,
Looked down from her tower.
There she saw the knight standing
with jewelry and a flower.
“Thanks but no thanks,
You can keep your pearls!’
You see my good sir,
I much prefer girls!
I ran away from my castle
To be with my wife
My beautiful witch,
The love of my life!”
The man arose from the ground
And replied with a wave
“Well then I suppose,
I’ll find another princess to save!”
