I shall sit here on this rose
And wonder why it is I chose

To live the life of a little green frog
Who spends his time in a muddy bog

Ponder what I’ve never had
This part makes me rather sad

Then smile and think, why not for me?
I’m really more than you can see

A princely chap, I don my crown
Of glittered gold, and sparkles round

Oh, to dream of love so true
Under skies of brilliant blue

When finally, I see her there
Wandering, without a care

I call to her, she doesn’t hear
How do I get her to come near?

To share with me, that fated kiss
And grant at last, my one true wish
