Happily Never After
Remember the old Disney movies
Where it ends happily ever after
Where there’s butterflies, dancing
And songs filled with laughter
Where a damsel in distress
Is saved from a high tower
And then her and the prince
Fall in love in little over an hour
Or maybe an evil step mother
And two ugly step sisters
Make a pretty girl scrub the
House till she has blisters
But in the end
She’ll be saved and it’ll be great
Cause she was always destined
To a better then average fate
Or how about this one
One girl and seven little men
Whoever came up with that story
Was a great comedian
Get this
Some girl sleeps for 100 years
Then a hot guy kisses her?
Now that one gave me nightmares
And there’s so many more
Princes, swords, laughter
But it’s a fairy tale
If it ends in happily ever after
But it’s not like that
Cause Disney has it wrong
People don’t fall in love
Just because they know the same song
High school sweethearts
Since freshman year
Got the dream life
And then one to many beers
Now they have a baby
Coming far to soon
They haven’t got the time
Or any room
Now she can’t get a job
And his college washed away
His parents are ashamed
Don’t know what to say
Wants to sell the baby
To the highest bid
Lets make it a fairy tale
Happily ever after kid.
Been married for 20 years
Got a big house by the lake
Its her boy’s 6th birthday
And she’s bringing out the cake
She can’t find her husband
He’s no where to be found
She runs back in the house
To hear that dreadful sound
Her sisters laugh
Echoed by his voice
There in her room
She doesn't have a choice
When everyone leaves
And the parties over
She walks in
And slaps her lover
Packs her bags and is in the car
Sill can hear her laughter
How’s that
For a happily ever after
What about the ugly step sisters
What about the ogres and witches
What about the sorcerers
And teenage…snitches
Why can’t they be happy?
Why does their life suck?
I say we run over the princesses
With a big old pick up truck
It’s not fair
That they have it all
When I found out my boyfriend
Has been cheating on me everyday at the mall
I thought princes had one princess
Not three
Why does Cinderella
Get one and not me
Why is it that I always
End up with a broken heart
I’m sick of being the ugly stepsister
I want the princesses part
I’m sick of being used
Tired of being played
I thought that they didn’t leave
That a prince always stayed
So what now?
Some once upon a time this is
My hearts broken
But of course not his
I guess I’ll just wait in my tower
Till my prince sets my heart free
With a carton of chocolate frosting
My Disney movies and me.
My revenge is simple
I watch till it’s almost over
Then I stop the dumb movie
So the prince never gets his lover
So he always feels lost
And can never break a heart
Cause I never ever ever
Let it get to that part
I just sit back
Let the room fill with my laughter
That’s what I call a
Happily ever after.
