The Lyrics
Once upon a time...
"Help me, help me, help me," Princess cried, "Now! Quick!"
Then she began to scream real loud
The dragon gave a laugh, so proud
It seemed her future was in check
Bravely then, Sir Bennett yelled, ---""I'll rescue you!
I promise that he won't flambe [flambay]...
He won't flambe poor you!"
Riding to the chasm's edge
The prince, he vowed to chop off its head
He dreamed of all the different ways
Of how'd he make it go
"Hey, you are so far away, " she yelled,
"Where's your sword, you shmoe?
Is there a lance on you?
He'll do a dance on you!"
He--none too brightly
He--thought too longly
He--had no angels
Missing plot, the pouncing dragon
Threw him in the water
He sunk like a rock!
He sunk like a rock!
Princess punched it in its hand
Her meanest fight in all her days
And swung her hips to free her frame
It opened up its fist
She fell outside, no broken bone
Then she grabbed out of her purse
Her knife, and stabbed it in the butt
And did a dance of victory
She--fair and lovely
She--one and only
She--slayed the dragon!
Then she began to scream real loud
The dragon gave a laugh, so proud
It seemed her future was in check
Bravely then, Sir Bennett yelled, ---""I'll rescue you!
I promise that he won't flambe [flambay]...
He won't flambe poor you!"
Riding to the chasm's edge
The prince, he vowed to chop off its head
He dreamed of all the different ways
Of how'd he make it go
"Hey, you are so far away, " she yelled,
"Where's your sword, you shmoe?
Is there a lance on you?
He'll do a dance on you!"
He--none too brightly
He--thought too longly
He--had no angels
Missing plot, the pouncing dragon
Threw him in the water
He sunk like a rock!
He sunk like a rock!
Princess punched it in its hand
Her meanest fight in all her days
And swung her hips to free her frame
It opened up its fist
She fell outside, no broken bone
Then she grabbed out of her purse
Her knife, and stabbed it in the butt
And did a dance of victory
She--fair and lovely
She--one and only
She--slayed the dragon!
The moral of the story is, "Don't forget to always have your weapon on hand." Or something like that. Copyright 2007, Agrimorfee.

An awesome story with a great twist, The damsel in distress actually slayed the dragon!!!
love the unexpected ending
well, if ever there was a video-able parody here it is - just throw Kiera Knightly in, and you're on your way to the Oscars - 555
And on the other end of the scale from the thinking Prince, we have....Agri's version who just gets it done!----MM
nice pacing ,loved the twist, is the prince ok ? 555
(AGES) Heehee. . .nice job Agi, one of your better Ages parody, although can't top SLC, but good parody guy. Can't give a long description here, i don't think I can say much that wouldn't echo other opinions.
(AGES 5) Okay, who saw that one coming? Not me! Love it!
(Ages) What a great story! I especially love the way you used some of the OS' lines against it.
I think I ovted on this just didnt say anything, this is awesome
Love the twist. A female empowering story! 555
SOTM - The poor dragon, he got stabbed in the butt! 5-5-5, loved it... but the butt... the butt!
SOTM - I'm just into rediscovering The Cure so this was great timing, as had the courageous princess.
(SOTM) Kind of reminiscient of Ripley in Alien!
Great
(SOTM) See above.
(SOTM) Overconfidence gets people in trouble. Oh yeah, and girls are perfectly capable of kicking ass. XD
(SOTM) Poor fire-breather! Good parody!
(SOTM) see above - and thanks for the tip about always having my weapon on hand, Ag- sure beats that other tip I was given as a teenager that occasionally my weapon should be OUT of hand
(SOTM) Cute as a button, Agri, and a lovely twist at the end. And I ALWAYS carry a weapon in my ha...oh, Stu's aready done that joke. :-( 555
SOTM -- same as above.
(SOTM) Like the twist ending. I can see this as a theme song for a Final Fantasy game. In that game, you ALWAYS have your weapon in your hand. Very good, Agri.
(SOTM) Well, I said it in my AGES comment. . .good parody. . .very good parody. . .
(SOTM) Very good, and I liked the twist too. I'm thinking this knight must have been the one from Dragon's Lair. :-) "Where's your sword, you shmoe?"
Loved it! 5s for this! again!
(SOTM) All I can envision is Crocodile Dundee saying 'That's not a knife. That's a knife!" Good job on a sticky subject.
SOTM - Excellent work! This sounded very Dragon's Lair-esque to me too. Dirk always seemed a little too inept, so no wonder the fair princess had to save the day on her own.
Everybody, thank you so much for the heaps o'praise you've (unexpectedly) given for this little tune. :)
Ha! Unearhted this hidden gem from you from awhile back, and I loved it! Reminds me of D&D a little bit. LOL!
I love the twist ending...although if all it takes is a small knife stab to the butt, it can't really be that impressive of a dragon haha. Great work!
This one is fantastic. I want to see this one made into a Disney movie and go against their typical damsel in distress point of view.
(Artistry) Wait, I've read this? Twice? Wow, my memory's crap. Anyway, fantastic parody with a great twist, 555 for thee!
I don't know why but for some reason, it reminds me of that stupid 1980s Japanese Zelda commercial, I mean...seriously, lol!
(Artistry) It's funny that I commented on this two years ago! I didn't know it had been that long. I remember it like it was yesterday. Oh well, I still love this!
