Prince Wildwolf Lyrics

Female:

From Verenal comes 
the Prince Wildwolf
Riding surreptitiously
on phantom wagons
from town to town

Usually he is seen riding 
on one of the coach horses
On this particular occasion
he rides into the banquet hall
and dismounts

His sharp dogs claws
won't catch on the hard waxen floor
So he falls and is unable to stand

Her Majesty the Queen enters
with a cat up to her cheek
and throws everybody out
then squeals as she spots her 
unexpected visitor

He speaks in a growling voice
that only she can understand

Male:

“I'm from Kambach. Kambach.
I'm the wolf of the Kambach road.
A good place to lose your whatnot.
I take you now for my shameful
wicked new-mown hay girl.

“This means make a wish 
to Faltenheim filth
...I've already made mine
And hurl salt over your shoulder
at Midnight”

Can such a wild werewolf be tamed?
He is smelling the new-mown hay 
for perhaps the last time.

Seeing as the Prince is a werewolf,
Her Majesty kisses him
and she becomes one also

Female:

“My Highness is craziness
and yet this Highness is me
(Howl)”

The wolves go into the chapel
Their black fur is left on the pews
Then their amorous chase
continues out into the garden

Male:

“I know your name, your Highness
but do you know mine?

Female:

“Of course! You're the snarling
Prince Wildwolf
And when I'm in my nightgown
you'll linger in my shadow

“I'll be punished for losing 
my whatnots
But then, what's a good
whatnot for?

“Sing me dead 
and kiss me dead
Hold me close 
and never wake me”

Male:

“I play dark music 
to the gown of your Highness
I foam at the lips 
whenever I kiss you”

Female:

“The Prince Wildwolf
seeps into her shadow
and joins her in the dark
of her royal bedroom”

Together:

Sing me dead
and kiss me dead
Hold me close
and never wake me
