"pearl" a Cinderella Story

Here's the story of Cinderella But not the way you've heard Promise if I tell you this You'll never utter a word Cinderella, Cindy, for short Tho her name was actually, Pearl (Never had no mean stepmother) She just traveled around the world See, she won a medieval game show And got to go visit the Prince The King and Queen have vanished And nobody has seen them since No one knows where the money came from But we think it's mighty suspicious For Cindy was a champion mud wrestler That went by the name of Miss Vicious There wasn't no pretty glass slippers She always wore her boots They come in handy for the job she did Did I tell you she pulled up roots? Anyway, her and the Prince took a luxury cruise The Barge was the state of the art It was a mixture between the Titanic And just a hint of Noah's ark The Prince has inherited the castle But now there's a funky smell (Remember I said his parents are gone?) That's coming from the courtyard well The King and Queen have never been found And the kingdom's become a disaster So the Prince and Cindy never got caught And they lived Happily Ever After I'm only kidding, the prince confessed, And they threw them both in jail Come back later, when you've got some time And I'll have a new story to tell
