Summary: a ballad of Jareth taking on the celtic dance phenomenon
Lord of the Pants Tune: Lord of the Dance/Simple Gifts
Flattley danced on the stage when the trend was begun
But thought a career in movies was more fun
Jareth looked through his crystal and at the earth
And said "I'll give Irish clogging a rebirth"
So then, who cares bout Flattley
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
I'll astound you all; defy gravity
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
He got an agent and began to dance
Wearing his tights instead of mere pants
He astounded the critics - he couldn't fall
But his fans were more interested in his balls
So then, who cares bout Flattley
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
I'll astound you all; defy gravity
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
Though his ego was huge he could dance, just the same
And he didn't need a shoe string to tie back his mane
While Flattley struggled in the heat of LA
Jareth-mania was coursing through the IRA
So then, who cares bout Flattley
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
I'll astound you all; defy gravity
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
He jumped and twirled and he leapt up high
With such tight pants any mortal man would die
The female cast members swooned and the fans went wild
In the first Riverdance show that was not fit for any child
So then, who cares bout Flattley
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
I'll astound you all; defy gravity
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
Flattley came back fighting, played the copyright game
All the fans and cast members said it was a shame
J had to give it up, but before he was through
His show was taped so the world could see what he could do
So then, who cares bout Flattley
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
I'll astound you all; defy gravity
I am the Lord of the Pants said he
