Want to know why I hate Cinderella?

Maybe it was how I was raised when I was younger,

Or maybe I just felt a strong feeling towards Cinderella called anger.

Imagine finding someone who fed you attention and money,

The only downside is that he came with a daughter who threatened to take that all away, oh honey.

Cinderella had many other qualities that surpassed my daughters,'

From her work ethic to her personality, no wonder I wasn't a supporter.

Don't get me wrong, she didn't do anything.

But would being better than my own flesh and blood be considered nothing?

I wasn't scared for myself,

But I was scared for my daughters.

Cinderella this, Cinderella that.

Everyone loved that brat,

So I banned her from the ball.

In hopes of preventing her from stealing everyones' heart in a long haul

It seems like I didn't do a very good job...
