Cinderella New

Cinderella New Well hello all my name is Cinderella and it’s true, I do a lot of work for my mother and sister that’s just old news, I’m getting calluses, cramps and tons of bruises, Since my family thinks I’m a slave that they can abuse. Well I think it’s time we have a sit down chat, ‘Cause this Cinderella New is no longer going for all that. I don’t mean to cause a spat, But I think some changes are long overdue in this habitat. So you say there’s no way you’re going to change your tune, That I’ve lost my mind ‘cause it’s a full moon. Well let me just let you know, I’ve got a few changes here that I may now show, If my ideas you try to veto. So gonna put extra starch in when I wash your underwear. Gonna bake some brownies with Ex-Lax for you so don’t despair. Gonna put some Crazy glue into that gel you use for your hair. Gonna put some cayenne pepper in the stew just on a dare. Gonna find some bedbugs to place in your sheets so you’d best take care. Well that’s really all I have to say, I think it’s time I have my way. So don’t worry sisters and mom, you’ll be just fine, Just don’t get me mad next time, When you’re chicken soup tastes like turpentine.
