<b>An Opening For A Princess</b> by <i>Joe Bova</i><br />

I liked her, so did I

Why does every princess get the bird? It's just absurd

I've never heard a test so difficult to pass

Alas, a lass is what I lack, I lack a lass, alas alack

Through out the land, no one may wed

Till Dauntless shares his marriage bed

The lonely spinster's life

Go and get the prince a royal wife

We have an opening for a princess

For a genuine certified princess

Tell us when you intend to end this dilemma we're in

None of the ladies give a fig for living in sin

We have an opening for a princess

For a beautiful, bonafide princess

Where's the dutiful knight

Who'll right all the wrongs we've been done?

None of the ladies are having any fun

What to do? What to do?

What to do? What to do?

Pity the ladies in waiting

Pity the gentlemen too, four, six, eight

Ten, eleven, twelve, contenders in a row

They came, they were tested

Then swiftly requested to go

For a princess

For a genuine certified princess

Tell us when you intend to send us a girl who can pass

And get the price a royal wife

None of the ladies are having any

No one is having any

No one is getting any younger

And it's been God-knows-how-long since

We have an opening for a princess

Who's good enough, nice enough

Sweet enough, smart enough

Rich enough for our poor prince
