The Lament of Prince Charming

There once was a man named Prince Charming
who found saving princesses alarming.
They were at the tops of tall towers
filled by dragons and powers
all in all it was all quite disarming.

When he'd find a girl worth the trouble
the danger always turned out to be double.
He would look up at the sky,
scream to the gods why,
charge in then leave the place in rubble.

However these girls were always damaged
often in ways the prince couldn't manage.
They'd make such a scene
about becoming the queen
the prince just found it all too savage.

It seemed whenever a princess is hot
she's cursed and her brain's left to rot.
For each one he found
drug her tongue on the ground.
It wasn't worth it to just tie the knot!

With each he saved the prince learned faster
that these women just wanted a master.
So he gave up on the chase,
found a prince to his taste,
and caught his happily ever after.
