Show Off, Show On
In the court life of Louis Fourteen
There developed a royal routine.
He’d commission a score
For a ballet de cours
When he wished that his Person be seen.
Quel Scandale
When J.-B. Lully fell from grace,
The reason was not hard to trace.
He was caught with a page
Of a much younger age
In an intimate carnal embrace.
Déploration
The cause of his death was a gaffe
That they hid from his tomb’s epitaph.
While pounding the beat
He had injured his feet
With his oversized time-keeping staff.
