Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Do you remember in the fairy tale, how the wicked witches spell
\nTurned the handsome prince to a toad?
\nBy the power of a potion, she handed him the notion
\nHe was lower than the dirt in the road.
\nAnd though she left him green and warted, her evil plans were thwarted
\nTheir chanced to happen by a young miss
\nWho inspite of his complexion, offered him affection
\nAnd broke the wicked curse with her kiss<\/p>\n

So if you’ve never been frog kissing
\nThen you don’t know what you’ve been missin’,
\nThere’s a wealth of opportunity under each and every log.
\nAnd if you’ve never been charm-breakin’,
\nThen you’ve never been handsome prince makin’.
\nYou’ve got to slow down, turn around, bend down,
\nKiss you a frog!<\/p>\n

Once upon a time ago, I was down and feelin’ low
\nLike a lonely frog in a pond
\nMy life was just a joke, and I was just about to croak
\nCuz I’d be zapped by life’s wicked wand.
\nBut in the depths of my depression, there came a true expression
\nOf love from a person so sweet.
\nShe gave me warm fuzzy feelings, feelings that were healin’
\nAnd she knocked me off my little webbed feet.<\/p>\n

There’s a happy-ever-after-land, deep in the heart of man
\nWhere a prince and princess abides.
\nBut all we get are glimpses, of the happy prince or princess
\n‘Cauce they’re covered with a green warty hide.
\nThough they’re full of life’s potential, they’re lacking one essential
\nTo enable them to shine like a star.
\nThat’s a handsome guy or missus, to smother them with kisses
\nAnd love them just the way that they are.<\/p>\n

That’s the secret of frog kissing
\nYou can do it too if you’ll just listen
\nThere’s a wealth of opportunity under each and every log.
\nThat’s the secret of charm-breakin’,
\nThat’s the secret of handsome prince makin’.
\nYou’ve got to slow down, turn around, bend down,
\nKiss you a…
\nYou’ve got to slow down, turn around, bend down,
\nKiss you a…
\nYou’ve got to slow down, turn around, bend down,
\nKiss you a frog!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
