YOUNG FIONA,

(Spoken)

Settle in girls. It's story time! Isn't this fun? It's like a sleep over,

but instead of a pillow fight, there is an insane dragon who incenterates things.

Now where were we? Oh right,

(Sung)

There's a princess

In a tower

Oh my gosh, that's just like me

Poor Rapunzel

Needs a haircut

But the witch won't set her free

She passes time by singing

Like someone else I know

As years go by she sits and waits…

As years go by? Uh oh

A torturous existence

I don't remember this part!

She wishes she were dead?

Skip ahead skip ahead!

But in the end Rapunzel finds a millionaire

The prince is good at climbing and braiding golden hair!

So I know, he'll appear

Cause there are rules and there are strictures

I believe the storybooks I read by candlelight

My white knight, and his steed

Will look just like these pictures!

It won't be long now, I guarantee!

Day number…23.

I know its today

I know its today

TEENSAGE FIONA:

(Spoken)

Oh here's a good one! It's a classic!

(Sung)

There's a princess

In a coma

Glad its her instead of me.

Pretty maiden

In a glass box

How I wonder does she pee?

Blah blah blah, poison apple

Boring boring evil queen

Filler filler, been there, read that!

Seven shorties on the scene.

Skip ahead, skip ahead…

But in the end the princess wakes up with a start

The prince is good at kissing

And melting Snow White's heart!

So I know, he'll appear

And his armor will be blinding!

As shining as his perfect teeth

And then repose

He'll propose

On one knee

And our prenupt will be binding!

About time we set the wedding date!

Day number…958.

I know it's today.

He'll show up today....

FIONA:

...ay...

There's a princess

Any princess

Take your pick, they're all like me

Not exactly, I'm still waiting

they're living happily

Ever after better get here

I want love in seconds flat

No one needs these middle bits

Oops, did I do that?

Cut the villains, cut the vamping

Cut this fairytale

Cut the peril and the pitfalls

Cut the puppet and the whale

Cut the monsters, cut the curses

Keep the intro, cut the verses

And the waiting, the waiting, the waiting, the waiting

The waiting!

But I know, he'll appear

Though I seem a bit bipolar

And I'm a vandal now as well, though he won't mind

I'm a find, I'm a catch

And a very gifted bowler!

It won't be long now, I guarantee!

Day number…

Are you there God?

It's me Fiona…

ALL FIONAS:

It's me Fiona!

Now I know, he'll appear

Cause there are rules and there are strictures

I believe the storybooks I read by candlelight

My white knight, my knight and his steed

Will look just like these pictures!

It won't be long now, I guarantee!

YOUNG FIONA

Day number 23

TEENAGE FIONA

Day number 958

FIONA:

Day number 8.423

YOUNG FIONA

I know its today, oooo

TEENAGE FIONA

I know its today, oooo

FIONA,

I know its today, oooo

YOUNG FIONA

I know its today, oooo

TEENAGE FIONA

I know its today, oooo

FIONA,

I Know it's today

ALL FIONAS,

I know it's today!
