for ever after, cinderella
Hey, hey, gather around,
ashes went cold and the wind blows!
Of toads and kisses, green peas and geese
i bring you no news, but of the fair lady
hidden in closure, cinderella her given name!
We all know how dazzling
in the ball she showed;
his hand in her waist,
oh, they could have danced
all night and a life!
Here is the true story yet untold:
the charming prince, you see,
left with a single shoe,
soon found another fit
for standardised shoes
- just that size! -
walked by in all feet.
And so the blond cinderella
turned grey and his gown
lost the diamond gloss;
her heart was handcrafted
- oh, but not easier than a shoe
to be shown as the true one!
The prince grew into a king,
his wifeΒ Β launched a fashion
shoe line (CEO the godmother!),
cinderella kept being... cinderella,
in all lights and nights; maybe
you've seen her, wandering in wonder...
