No Prince Charming

My armor isn't as shiny as it once was
Haven't fought a battle in a while
My sword isn't as sharp as it used to be
I'll need to sharpen it with a file
I used to sweep the ladies off their feet
They'd hang on every vowel
But my armor is a little tarnished now
I'm going to need another towel
 
Prince Charming I never was
But I put on a good show
They'd never seen him
I was the closest thing they'd know
The real Prince Charming never complained
I don't know if he exists
But the new girl is looking for him
I know, but I can't resist
 
I'll be your Prince Charming
I'll take you to Camelot
My armor is a little rusty
But I'll show you what I got
And some time in the morning
I'll sneak off into the light
You'll think you were with Prince Charming
But I'm just another Knight

Started as a song, but I think it's better as ...whatever this is.
