It was the summer of 1353
And I sat beneath a willow tree
I decided upon that day I would be
Awooing a lady
I went to the florist and I said to she
I need a flower for today I'll be
Awoo, awooing a lady
I'll hold this flower beneath her nose
It should smell as sweet as a rose
"For this", she said, "I recommend a rose,
For a rose-like scent I'd probably go with a rose"
Then I went to the tailor for to buy
Some clothing of the latest style
Wich at that time was tights and pointed boots
I've got the very tightest tights and the pointiest of boots
Than I said to the hairdresser: cut my hair!
"I'll cut it like the page boys wear
Just a straight line across the brow
Get a ruler and some scissors and do it for you now
It's a very hot look if you're trying to woo a lady"
Then i needed a horse so I went to stable
And said: stable man would I be able
To hire a horse from wich to woo milady
"Sire, there are 2 things I must see
1 florin and 1 form of a picture ID"
Unless so I have no ID on me
Who even carries ID? It's 1353
"I maketh not the rules", quoth he
I had a very unflattering tapestry made of me
Then from a hilltop a lady I did view
And I knew exactly what I must do
The time had come for me to woo this lady
So I said: woo-hoo, woo-hoo hoo,
Woo- hoo lady I'm wooing you
Woo -hoo, woo, I woo you lady
This lady then said unto me:
"You can't woo me so easily
It takes more than doing wooo to woo a lady"
But, lady, look beneath your nose
It is a rose-scented flower wich I call it rose
I have a very large horse and the tightest clothes
All of these things I do to to woo you, lady
"The horse is big, the tights are fun
But the hairdo is a little 1351
In fact it makes you look a little like a lady"
He-Man has this very same haircut
He-Man, double masculine, HE-MAN
"I am to be married to the king
We are to be wed this coming spring
If you want my heart you have to chalenge him
To the thing they do with the long pointy things
The thing they run to one-another on the horseback
With the very long pointy thing, puncture your lung"
Oh, is that the time I should be on my way
I think I'm coming down with a little bit of the plague
If it matters not to you I will just away
And claimed that I wooed you anyway
I'll tell all my friends in the village
That I wooed a lady
By going, woo, woo, woo hooo hoo
Woo hoo lady I've just wooed you, milady
