Cindy's Loving Stepsisters
Once upon a dreary night
Cinderella cleaned without a fight.
Meanwhile, her stepsisters basked upstairs
powdering their skin to make it fair.
They envied young Cindy's beauty and charm
but they never meant to cause any harm
Their mother had put them under a spell
which made them put young Cindy through hell.
Each night as the spell wore down
they cried in their bed with a harrowing frown.
Their guilt was so strong from all their menace
they counted six rosaries as some sort of penance.
Meanwhile Cindy had no clue
She figured she just had to put up with poo.
One day the stepsisters found the cure to the spell
They whispered to each other but did not tell
their grandmother who was oblivious to it
they finally would get to act on their merit.
So they went through the day treating Cindy like a queen
they finally wouldn't have to act so mean.
