But You've Heard All This Before

     She fell into his arms, so sweet
     He swept her off her glass-slippered feet
        But you’ve heard all this before

     They climbed into a golden carriage
     Where he took her hand, proposing marriage
        But you’ve heard all this before

     Kissing madly, their quivering lips so wet
     They rode off into the summer sunset  
        ~ Scalding their tushies to ash
