Once upon a time,
Under the sea,
There was just you and me.
Wandering instead of bedtime,
Mine own, daughter of Triton,
Left me frightened,
Dirty, dusty, and a mess,
juice is spilled all over my dress.
Rushing to clean from here to there,
I have no fresh clothes to wear.
What I was expecting, was not her at all,
My heart beating until it falls.
The hole that was held for many years in between,
Has finally opened with her chasing the Hare for his ring.
Once upon a time,
John Smith talked about "savages",
and Pocahontas said, "bitch what?"
Once upon a time,
Sleeping Beauty woke from her sleep, looking at Prince Charming and said,
Born with blood royal
And blessed with fairy wishes,
A young girl was to grow into a lovely woman
But was tainted with one’s cursed kisses.
No matter the spoils or words of roses
Once Upon a Time, my brother was my best friend.
Then, one day the friendship came to an end.
Only one of us could be ruler of the kingdom.
I though I saw my chance to freedom- "Ursula Queen of the Sea".
Once upon a time
In a land not so far away
Where the balance of good and bad
Forever sway
But what would happen
Adali offered Father’s stranger more wine.
We all knew he’d accept.
On our way to the woods though,
Dad,
The amount of times I've been called little
Told I can't go outside the kingdom
Swim to see the sweet sunset take over
It's maddening
All I want is freedom; a voice for myself
Once upon a time,
there was a beautiful woman
with a wicked, wicked stepdaughter.
Lady Termaine was an angel
while Ella was her devil.
Congratulations
You’ve made it this far so far
And I know you’ve made a lot
Of mistakes
But I still find reasons
To love you because
I know you try
You have always been there
For me
I'm over the princess waiting for the prince.
Just so he can bend over and wake her with a kiss.
You been locked in a tower for god knows how long,
and the first thing you want is to be kissed by a frog.
