High in a tower Like yours was, but higher A beauty asleep All 'round the tower A thicket of briar A hundred feet deep Agony No frustration more keen When the one thing you want Is a thing that you've not even seen I found a casket Entirely of glass No, it's unbreakable Inside, don't ask it A maiden, alas Just as unwakeable What unmistakable agony Is the way always barred? She has skin white as snow- Did you learn her name? No There's a dwarf standing guard Agony Such that princes must weep Always in thrall most To anything almost Or something asleep If it were not for the thicket A thicket's no trick Is it thick? It's the thickest The quickest is pick it apart with a stick Yes, but even one prick It's my thing about blood Well, it's sick It's no sicker Than your thing with dwarves Dwarfs? Dwarfs Dwarfs are very upsetting Not forgetting The tasks unachievable Mountains unscalable If it's conceivable But unavailable Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Agony Misery Woe Not to know what you miss While they lie there for years And you cry on their biers What unbearable bliss Agony That can cut like a knife Ah well, back to my wife
