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
