Title: Even Princes Can Be Emo
Post by: Pryopizm on August 24, 2006, 04:55:52 PM

CP =  Cinderella's Prince      RP = Rapunzell's Prince

P: High in a tower--
 Like yours was, but higher--
 A beauty asleep.
 All 'round the tower,
 A thicket of briar
 A hundred feet deep.
 Agony!  No frustration more keen,
 When the one thing you want
 Is a thing that you've not even seen.
RP: I've found a casket
 Entirely of glass--
 No, it's unbreakable.
 Inside--don't ask it--
 A maiden, alas,
 Just as unwakeable--
Both: What unmistakable agony!  Is the way always barred?
RP: She has skin white as snow--
CP: Did you learn her name?
RP: No, there's a dwarf standing guard.
Both: Agony!  Such that princes must weep!
 Always in thrall most
 To anything almost,
 Or something asleep.
CP: If it were not for the thicket--
RP: A thicket's no trick.  Is it thick?
CP: It's the thickest.
RP: The quickest is pick it apart with a stick--
CP: Yes, but even one prick--
 It's my thing about blood.
RP: Well, it's sick!
CP: It's no sicker than your thing with dwarves.
RP: Dwarves.
CP: Dwarves...
RP: Dwarves are very upsetting.
Both: Not forgetting the tasks unachievable,
 Mountains unscalable--
 If it's conceivable
 But unavailable,
 Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah--
 Agony!
CP: Misery!
RP: Woe!
Both: Not to know what you miss.
CP: While they lie there for years--
RP: And you cry on their biers--
Both: What unbearable bliss!
 Agony, that can cut like a knife!
 Ah well, back to my wife...

I'm listening to a Japanese indy song called Cinderella!  Coincedence?  I THINK NOT!

Nothing to get.  It's from a musical called Into the Woods.  In this song, Cinderella's Prince and Rapunzel's Prince have found Snow White and Sleeping Beauty and are lusting after them despite their current wives.
