Song by Carol Burnett<br /><br>

They all lived happily happily happily ever after<br>

The couple is happily leaving the chapel eternally tied<br>

As the curtain descends there is nothing but loving and laughter <br>

When the fairy tale ends the heroins always a bride<br>

Ella the girl of the cinders<br>

Did the wash and the walls and the winders <br>

But she landed a prince who was brawny and blue eyed and blond<br>

Still I honestly doubt that she could ever have done it without that <br>

Crazy lady with the wand--Cinderella had outside help<br>

I've got no one but me <br>

Fairy godmother godmother godmother where can you be?<br>

I haven't got a fairy godmother. I haven't got a godmother.<br>

I have a mother. A plain, ordinary woman.<br>

Snow White was so pretty they tell us<br>

That the queen was insulted and jealous <br>

When the mirror declared that Snow White was the fairest of all<br>

She was dumped on the border <br>

But was saved by some men who adored her <br>

Oh I grant you they were small<br>

But there were 7 of them practically a regiment<br>

I'm alone in the night <br>

by myself not a dwarf not an elf not a goblin in sight<br>

That girl had 7 little men working day and night just for her <br>

Oh sure the queen gave her a poisoned apple.. even so<br>

She lived happily happily happily ever after <br>

A magical kiss counteracted the apple eventually<br>

Though I know I'm not clever I'll do what they tell me I hafta<br>

I want some happily ever after to happen to me<br>

[original]<br>

[Rapunzel had platinum tresses <br>

That were double the length of her dresses<br>

She was kept in a tower for years by a wicked old witch<br>

Till one night in despair down <br>

She scrambled by letting her hair down <br>

That's what I call quite a switch<br>

I wonder no it'll never hold<br>

I'll be finished before I begin <br>

And besides]<br>

{Revival}<br>

{Winnifred Pade of the myre<br>

Has one simple human desire<br>

Oh I ask for no more that two shoes on the floor next to mine<br>

Oh someone to fly and to float with<br>

To swim in the marsh and the moat with<br>

As for this one well, he'd be fine <br>

but now it's all up to me!<br>

And I'm burning to bring it about<br>

If I don't I'll be stuck with goodbye and good luck and get out<br>

I don't want to get out I want to get in<br>

I wanna get into some happily happily ever after}<br>

[I don't want to get out I want to get in<br>

I want to live happily happily happily ever after]<br>

I want to walk happily out of the chapel eternally tied<br>

For I know I'll never live happily ever after till after i'm a bride<br>

Then I'll be happily happy <br>

Yes happily happy<br>

And thouroughly satisfied<br>

<br>
