• Prick! Goes The Scorpion’s Tale

Black, black is love's potion
We drink, we drink from its well
And in their name let's drink to true love
For a toad and a scorpion fell
Yes, in their name let's drink to true love
For true love can break the spell
(For true love can break the spell)

Awake from you dream, frog maiden
Skin green as the emerald sea
Let me tell you a tale of a love that had failed
Prick, prick, prick
Goes the scorpions tale

She blushed as she walked by the water
Having known him the evening before
She liked how he spoke
But aware of his poke
Prick, prick, prick
Goes the scorpions tale

Oh, love it is foolish and green, my love
How quickly we forget the sting, my love
What a pretty and dangerous line, my love
What bitter, yet delicious wine, my love

With a flick of his prick he surprised her
Shell red as the rose in his teeth
“Fair maiden join me
Let us ride out to sea”
Prick, prick, prick
Goes the scorpions tale

She pondered if his love was poison
But he pricked her so gently she swooned
His words poured like wine
As their fates intertwined
Prick, prick, prick
Goes the scorpion's tale

Oh, love it is foolish and green, my love
How quickly we forget the sting, my love
What a pretty and dangerous line, my love
What bitter, yet delicious wine, my love

She offered her back quite demurely
He climbed and they swam out to sea
She stroked and she smiled
And his stinger went wild
Prick, prick, prick, prick
Prick, prick, prick, prick
Prick, prick, prick
Goes the scorpion's tale

Black, black is love's potion
Take heed, take heed of the thorns
Don't scream when it stings
Remember that you were warned

Come drink, drink, drink, drink
Drink, drink, drink, drink
Drink, drink, drink, drink
Drink, drink, drink
Drink-drink-drink!
From the cup of my scorn!
