A/N: Li's point of view. I've been wondering what he might think of the
somewhat skewed gender roles in Card Captor Sakura, so here's my take. Hee-
hee, Li in a dress . . .
"Knight in Pink Satin"
I dance to my sword like a dervish possessed
Whirling and twirling and in satin dressed
I see you there, and you are the prince
Gorgeous and strange like I've never seen since
My hair turns golden like the lion's fur
The girl in the mirror- I am her!
And now you hold your sword in hand
Dispersing the justice of your special brand
For your star shines brighter than any other
Power that came from your father and mother
And you rescue me, for you are the prince
Lovely and strange like I've never seen since
And androgynous is the girl in armor
The sacred, the precious, the great Lady Sir
The shining prince, justice-possessed
And I look to you, in satin dressed
I am a man, but a princess to you
And you are the prince, dressed in bright blue
You hold the sword, for you are the blessed
And I am whirling and twirling and in satin dressed
A kiss from me; for that you'd die
Leave me, just the princess, alone to cry
But princess or not, I am what I am!
I'd follow you, and world be damned!
For I am the knight, in pink satin dressed
Who defends and stands by the one who is blessed
For princess-knights are brave and strong
They don't wait for their princes to come riding along
And I am your knight, in pink satin dressed!
And I will be with you, and we will be blessed!
So orders the princess, so swears the knight!
And I will be with you, and it will all be all right!
For I am the princess in pink satin dressed
And I am the knight who knows what is best
And you, my darling, you are the prince
Mystic and strange like I've never seen since
So bring on the dragons, bring on the tears
We'll be together for all of our years
For you are the prince, and the prince is blessed
By whirling and twirling while in satin dressed.
