Pigs might fly.
Foolish to think she would marry you
Why would she sink so low?
You've only a claim to a noble old name
Who could blame her for saying no?
Foolish to dream she's in love with you
You're a fool to believe that kiss
The man who inspires such breathless desires
Well, that's the man to dismiss
Foolish to hope she would ever see
All that you really are
A man with no trade is no match I'm afraid
For a blade in a motor car
He'll go far
Foolish to pray you will ever be
The fellow she might prefer
Let's have a drink
It's foolish to think
You'll ever stop loving her
On a mythical scale, the D'Ysquiths prevail
On a hill just outside of town
In a castle they love
That is so far above
They're accustomed to looking down
And the family ordains
That the blood in my veins
Is more than a trifle impure
They conspired with each other
Condeming poor mother
To a hearbreaking life she could hardly endure
With no conscience or care
They disposed of an heir to their golorious family tree
Do I lie down and die?
Or determine to try to alter the course of my destiny?
Otherwise what will become of me?
Am I foolish to think that I could ever be
Will I never be more than I am today?
I can see me as man of respect
You could never detect
Had once been so heartlessly cast away
Am I foolish to dream I'll be Earl one day?
A towering man among men?
Then who could deny
Now and then, pigs can fly?
Who will look foolish then?
Who will look foolish
Then?
Foolish to think she would marry you
Why would she sink so low?
You've only a claim to a noble old name
Who could blame her for saying no?
Foolish to dream she's in love with you
You're a fool to believe that kiss
The man who inspires such breathless desires
Well, that's the man to dismiss
Foolish to hope she would ever see
All that you really are
A man with no trade is no match I'm afraid
For a blade in a motor car
He'll go far
Foolish to pray you will ever be
The fellow she might prefer
Let's have a drink
It's foolish to think
You'll ever stop loving her
On a mythical scale, the D'Ysquiths prevail
On a hill just outside of town
In a castle they love
That is so far above
They're accustomed to looking down
And the family ordains
That the blood in my veins
Is more than a trifle impure
They conspired with each other
Condeming poor mother
To a hearbreaking life she could hardly endure
With no conscience or care
They disposed of an heir to their golorious family tree
Do I lie down and die?
Or determine to try to alter the course of my destiny?
Otherwise what will become of me?
Am I foolish to think that I could ever be
Will I never be more than I am today?
I can see me as man of respect
You could never detect
Had once been so heartlessly cast away
Am I foolish to dream I'll be Earl one day?
A towering man among men?
Then who could deny
Now and then, pigs can fly?
Who will look foolish then?
Who will look foolish
Then?
