Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Settle in, girls, it's story time!
[Verse 2]
There's a princess in a tower, oh my gosh, that's just like me
Poor Rapunzel, needs a haircut
But the witch won't set her free
She passes time by singing, like someone else I know
As years go by she sits and waits, as years go by, uh-oh
A torturous existence, I don't remember this part
She wishes she were dead, skip ahead, skip ahead
But in the end Rapunzel finds a millionaire
The prince is good at climbing and braiding golden hair
[Verse 3]
So I know he'll appear, 'cause there are rules and there are strictures
I believe the storybooks I read, by candlelight
My white knight, and his steed, will look just like these pictures
It won't be long now, I guarantee
Day number twenty three
I know it's today, I know it's today
[Verse 4]
Oh, here's a good one, it's a classic
There's a princess in a coma, glad it's her instead of me
Pretty maiden in a glass box, how I wonder does she pee?
Blah blah blah blah, poison apple
Boring boring evil queen
Filler filler, been there, read that
Seven shorties on the scene
Skip ahead, skip ahead, but in the end the princess wakes up with a start
The prince is good at kissing and melting Snow White's heart
[Verse 5]
So I know he'll appear, and his armor will be blinding
As shining as his perfect teeth
And manly hose
He'll propose on one knee
And our prenup will be binding
About time we set a wedding date
Day number nine hundred and fifty eight
I know it's today, he'll show up today
[Verse 6]
There's a princess, any princess
Take your pick, they're all like me
Not exactly, I'm still waiting
They're out living happily
Ever after better get here, I want love in seconds flat
No one needs these middle bits, whoops, did I do that?
Cut the villains, cut the vamping, cut this fairy tale
Cut the peril and pitfalls, cut the puppet in the whale
Cut the monsters, cut the curses, keep the intro, cut the verses
And the waiting, the waiting, the waiting, the waiting, the waiting!
[Verse 7]
But I know he'll appear, though I seem a bit bipolar
And I'm a vandal now as well, hope he won't mind
I'm a find, I'm a catch
And a very gifted bowler
It won't be long now, I guarantee
Day number, are you there God? It's me, Fiona
It's me, Fiona
[Verse 8]
Now I know he'll appear, 'cause there are rules and there are strictures
I believe the storybooks I read, by candlelight
My white knight, my knight and his steed
Will look just like his pictures, it won't be long now, I guarantee
Day number twenty three, day number nine fifty eight
Day number eight thousand four hundred and twenty three
I know it's today, I know it's today
I know it's today, I know it's today, I know it's today
I know it's today, i know it's today, I know it's today
