Lyrics
Cinderella's on her bedroom floor
She's got a crush on the guy, at the liquor floor
Cause mister charming, don't come home anymore
She forgets why she came here
Sleeping beauty in 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
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
(next best thing yeah)
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 for a friend says
Will you meet me at midnight?
Oh the tall blonde lets out cry of despair says
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
(next best thing yeah)
Once upon a time
In a far away kingdom
Man made up 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 big thing
So I sing, I hold my head down
And I break these walls around me
Can't take no more
Of your fairytale love
I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worries about
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 big thing
No no, I don't want the next big thing
