The Lovestruck Witch
O poor poor old hag
She was surely old and and ugly
But she did deserve a hug
For she was filled not with evil and cruelty
True, she did kill Cinderella
True, she did kill Ariel
True, she did want to be the one bella
True, she saw herself not as old, but as the great belle
When she met this great knight
She swore to kill him right there
For he had come to steal her night
To make sure, the rest of humanity had some safe air
But when she did look into his eyes
She fell, and fell into a world she knew not before
She wished for all her slain boys, no more cries
And she desired to be as sexy as the town's whore
So she sought out the help of dragons
Maybe they could capture her knight
And bring him to her dungeons
She would make love to him and it would be alright
She sought the help of the wizard
Maybe he could bring up a love potion
She would be in love, and there would be no hazard
For love is surely that which keeps the world in motion
She ate frogs, as they would give her her beauty back
She drank lizards' blood as they would make her look young
She would no more be slack
And for her, church bells would be rung
Yet, she remained a poor poor old witch
For the knight was none other than a God
He had come to give her more than a twitch
But realized that she was one who wished to be desired
So he let her be, let her suffer
Said he, let her live in this world
Even if she was to live forever
It mattered not, as long as love was now her soul's word!
