Sara Bareilles – Fairytale (Lyrics Songtexte)

Cinderella’s on her bedroom floor
She’s got a Crush on the guy at the liquor store
Cause Mr. Charming don’t come home anymore
And she forgets why she came here
Sleeping Beauty’s in a foul mood
For shame she says None for you dear prince,
i’m tired today
I’d rather sleep my whole life away
than have you keep me from dreaming

Cause I don’t care for you fairytales
You’re so worried bout the maiden though you know
She’s only waiting on the next best thing

Snow White is doing dishes again cause
What else can you do With seven itty-bitty men?
Sends them to bed and calls up a friend
Says will you meet me at midnight?
The tall blonde lets out a cry of despair says
Would have cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair
I’ll have to find another tower somewhere
and keep away from the windows

Cause I don’t care for you fairytales
You’re so worried bout the maiden though you know
She’s only waiting on the next best thing
next best thing yeah

Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom
Man made up a story said that
I should believe him
Go and tell your white knight that he’s handsome in hindsight
But I don’t want the next best thing
So I sing and hold my head down and I break these walls round me
Can’t take no more of your fairytale love

I don’t care for you fairytales
You’re so worried bout the maiden though you know
She’s only waiting on the next best thing I don’t care
I don’t care
Worry bout the maiden though you know
She’s only waiting spent the whole life
being graded on the sanctity of patience and a dumb Appreciation
But the story needs some mending and a better happy ending

Cause I don’t want the next best thing No no
I don’t want the next best thing
