Rapunzel Can Tangle Herself Out
Once upon a time long ago,
lived a princess with hair down to her toes
Rapunzel was held captive in a tower
Where she remained for hours and hours
The tale states that she had no way of escaping
And she had hair that was long and draping
And while she would eventually be saved by a prince,
What if this all happened ages since?
You see, Rapunzel is a feminist and proud
She is determined, courageous, and had made herself a vow
To find a way out all by herself
Because she, most certainly, did not need any help
Her locks were endless and golden
She refused to confine to classic fairytale standards and become broken
Instead, she withheld from letting down her hair
Because Rapunzel, Rapunzel, knew she would get somewhere
She began wasting her life away
Trying to find the light in a day
But after searching and running around and around,
She realized there was a staircase facing down
