Getting over the Goblin King

I have issues. Deeply seated issues, that I should really seek professional help for. But instead, I'm here, with another bit of insanity. Well, at least it's a lot cheaper than therapy. And much more amusing. Oh, and just for the record, I would like to mention I hate quick edit. I wish it would die a slow and painful death. Anyhow, hope you enjoy it, and remember to review!

Disclaimer: The Labyrinth and all things pertaining to it are not mine. The idea of this song is shamelessly filched from my a song my cousin wrote entitled "Getting over Kyle", which gave me the inspiration. Any requests to use part or all of the lyrics will more than likely be approved, but I would prefer if you asked first.


Getting over the Goblin King

Oh once upon a time,

Not too long ago

I was in the mood for something crazy,

But had lent my copy of Rocky Horror Picture Show...


So my friend,

She told me about this movie

Said it was off the wall,

That it was really groovy


She said that I would like it lots,

We could even play a drinking game for it with jell-o shots

So we sat down and she popped it in

She pressed play and made it begin...


Oh,

I was lost,

From the moment he was on the screen

With his big entrance in his first scene

Couldn't believe, just what I was seeing

That was the moment I fell for the Goblin King...


(Chorus)

Oh,

The Goblin King, he was the villain

But to me he was something more

I loved his blonde spiky hair

And those thigh-high boots he wore

I knew I was a goner,

When I heard him sing

Oh yes, it's so hard, getting over the Goblin King


I was a fan,

There was no denying,

And when Sarah refused him

I was almost crying


Went on the internet,

Found fanfiction dot net

Lost myself in one story after another

With supporting characters like Jareth's long lost brother...


Oh,

The Goblin King, he was the villain

But to me he was something more

I loved his blonde spiky hair

And those thigh-high boots he wore

I knew I was a goner,

When I heard him sing

Oh yes, it's so hard, getting over the Goblin King


I read everything,

that I could find,

Read the really bad,

And the sublime

Read stories with Sarah all grown up, into a real looker

Even read a crossover with TJ Hooker...


But the more I read,

The more I started to see,

That maybe dear Jareth,

Wasn't all he was cut out to be...


There was that spikey hair that Tina Turner would covet,

It's really nothing more than a glorified mullet,

And all that make-up, with colors so very bright

Kinda makes him look like a bad transvestite...


And let's not get started,

Upon those tights he likes while he's singing rock

And how we're all pretty sure

That he stuffs them with socks...


Oh,

The Goblin King, he was the villain

But to me he was something more

I loved his blonde spiky hair

And those thigh-high boots he wore

I knew I was a goner,

When I heard him sing

Oh yes, it's so hard, getting over the Goblin King


But if you really try,

You can get over him

Just read a few humor fics,

And let the fun begin


But what's a girl to do?

Just gotta find something new

To obsess about...

Sure I can find some new things

There's always Lord of the Rings

And Harry Potter too...


Oh,

The Goblin King,he was the villain

And for a while he was something more

With his mullet haircut

And those hooker boots he wore

I knew I was a goner,

When I heard his 'package' was a sock

And I realized,

It's not so hard...

Getting over the Goblin King.


I told you, issues. But all I know, is this song amuses me to absolutely no end, so I just -had- to put it up. Never minding I know I will be seeing the Bog in my future because of it. Ah well, it's all worth it. Anyhow, hope you enjoyed it, and remember...
