Then he’d bend down on one knee
And present a diamond ring
But then my sisters spoilt my dream
They took my joy, they took my pride
And then they dressed up fancily
On white horses did they ride!
If my father was now here
I would be travelling to the ball
I would have four golden horses
And be dressed up like a doll
My tears rolled out, rolled out and out
Why could I not go as well?
And suddenly, I saw a face
My heart began to swell
I had seen that face before
It was the face of my god-mum
She was my fairy god mother
I had told her to come
She then came down from the heavens
And with her magic wand she came
She waved it once, she waved it twice
My life will never be the same
Out appeared a golden carriage
My torn clothes were now a dress
Six horses were now at my side
“You really are the very best!”
Just in time, I heard a voice
“Be home before the clock strikes nine”
A whole three hours!
I’m sure that I’ll be fine
All the heads turned and stared
The prince took my hand and danced all night
He danced with no-one else that day
It really was love at first sight!
My sisters saw me with the prince
They looked at me with an envious look
They didn’t know that it was me
They really did look like a crook
As the clock did strike nine
I ran and ran without a clue
Then I noticed
That I had lost a shoe
I kept the other hidden carefully
My feet were small and dainty too
The prince came round
To look for who
Had danced with him that night
He roamed the town
Trying every woman
That anyone had known
My sisters came and cursed the girl
Who had danced with the prince?
If they knew that it was me
I would be roast mince
They did think that she was foreign
They never thought that it was me
I made them lunch, I made them dinner
I even made them tea
In the end, the prince came here
When he saw me
He gradually fell down
And knelt down onto one knee
A diamond ring
He did present
And I did give him
My consent
Then the prince stood up
And swept me off my feet
We got married off happily
He did it really neat
Before the day that my prince came
I was Cinderella
Now that I’m a brand new girl
I am Princess Ella
