Sara Bareilles

Sara Bareilles - Fairytale lyrics

rate me

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

CHORUS

’Cause I don’t care for your 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 she 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.

CHORUS

’Cause I don’t care for your fairytales

You’re so worried ’bout the maiden though

you know

She’s only waiting on the next best thing

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

CHORUS

’Cause I don’t care for your fairytales

You’re so worried ’bout the maiden though

you know

She’s only waiting spent her 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.
