Lyrics[]
This one's too young.
- [Sweetie Belle]
- Cheerilee is sweet and kind,
- She's the best teacher we could hope for.
- The perfect stallion you and I must find
- One to really make her heart so-o-oar.
- But...
- This one's too young,
- This one's too old.
- He clearly has a terrible cold.
- "Hay Fever": Achoo!
- [Apple Bloom]
- This guy's too silly.
- He's way too uptight.
- "Persnickety": I say!
- [Sweetie Belle]
- Well nothing's wrong with this one,
- He seems alright...
- Scootaloo: His girlfriend sure thinks so.
- [Sweetie Belle]
- How 'bout this one?
- [Apple Bloom]
- He's much too flashy.
- [Scootaloo]
- He might do!
- [Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle]
- If he weren't so splashy!
- [Apple Bloom]
- Too short.
- [Sweetie Belle]
- Too tall.
- [Apple Bloom]
- Too clean.
- [Scootaloo]
- Too smelly.
- [Sweetie Belle]
- Too strangely obsessed with tubs of jelly.
- Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle: [sigh]
- [Apple Bloom]
- I don't think that we're mistaken,
- It seems all the good ones are taken.
- [Sweetie Belle]
- I really feel that at this rate,
- We'll never find the perfect date.
- [Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle]
- Don't wanna quit and give up hope!
- Scootaloo: Doing anything special for Hearts and Hooves Day?
- [Sweetie Belle]
- Oh please, oh please oh please say—
- Big McIntosh: Nope.
- Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle: [gasp]
- [Sweetie Belle]
- We did it girls,
- We've found the one!
- Who will send our teacher's heart aflutter!
- Apple Bloom: Wait a minute. Lemme get this straight. Are you talkin' 'bout my brother?
