The phoenix cried fat tears of pearl
When the dragon snapped up his best girl
And the Billywig forgot to twirl
When his sweetheart left him cold
And the unicorn done lost his horn
And the Hippogriff feels all forlorn
'Cause their lady loves have upped and gawn
Or that's what I've been told

Yes, love has set the beasts astir
The dang'rous and the meek concur
It's ruffled feathers, fleece, and fur
'Cause love drives all of us wild
