Just One Tiny Bite

( To be sang to the tune of - " Let's Go Fly A Kite! "
 - from Mary Poppins. ) 

When Snow White lived in the woods
With seven dwarves, true and good,
The old evil Queen
Arrived on the scene
In a widow disguise
With some fruit and a hood.

And she sang...

Just one tiny bite
Away from endless night
Where you can live your dreams
Forever after.
Laughter will fill your days,
Happy your heart always
After one tiny bite.

But Snow White at first wasn't sure
Why this woman came to her door.
She politely did test,
At this lady's request,
How good the apple tastes.
She lost conscious in haste.

The Queen sang...

Just one tiny bite.
Now you're in endless night.
And I will stay enthroned 
Forever on now.
No girl will replace
With her pretty face
Me and my majesty!

So the dwarves laid Snow White to rest
In a clear, crystal lid chest.
But she wasn't lost!
For the prince, all it cost
Was a smile and a kiss
Followed by wedded bliss.

Snow White sang...

Just one tiny bite
Sent you like a knight
To rescue me quite fast
So this curse won't last!
The kingdom has been spared
From evil now is purged
All from one tiny bite!

Hi Jan. Thank you. :-D I really enjoyed writing this one. I've set myself a personal challenge to pick one song from each musical I'm familiar with and write lyrics to go with one tune from each. It's truly fun! Would highly recommend this challenge to anyone :-D :-D xx
