Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper Page #6

To be a Princess

is to own a thousand pairs of shoes.

To maintain a regal gait

leave the parsley on your plate

And be charming but detached

and yet amused.

To be a Princess

is to never be confused.

Do a pli and never fall

don't ever stray from protocol

All through the day

there's just one way you must behave

Do keep a grip and never crack

stiff upper lip and arch the back

Bend from above

and always wear your gloves, and wave.

Shoulders back and

tummy in and

Pinky out and

lift the chin and

Slowly turn the head from side to side.

- I see now.

Breathing gently, stepping lightly

Smile brightly, nod politely

Never show a thing you feel inside.

Glide.

To be a Princess

is to always look your best.

To be a Princess

is to never get to rest.

Sit for a portrait, never squirm.

Sleep on a mattress extra firm.

Speak and be clever

never at a loss for words.

Curtsy to every Count and Lord.

Learn how to play the harpsichord.

Sing lullabies and always

harmonize in thirds.

Thirds, thirds.

And... she has beautiful eyes

Your spirits rise when

she walks in the room.

I see.

Doors close and the chemistry grows.

She's like a rose

that's forever in bloom.

- Do a pli and don't

- Ever ever ever fall

- Never show dismay

- And be there when people call

Be prepared whatever royal life will bring

- Do keep a grip and don't...

- Ever ever ever crack

- Take a dainty sip

- Never ever turn your back

There's a time and place

and way for everything

To be a princess

Is to never make your bed

To be a princess

Is to always use your head

It is official, then.

Due to the disappearance of the Princess,

the wedding to King Dominick is cancelled.

Your Highness, wait!

May I present, Princess Anneliese.

Darling?

Anneliese?

Oh-hoh, you're back!

Where have you been?

I am sorry. I should not have run away.

Promise me you'll never do it again.

I still think we should cancel the wedding.

Yes, yes, but an agreement is an

agreement. The wedding is back on!

King Dominick is...

is, is due tomorrow!

Wonderful.

Uh, tomorrow?

And then, only a few short

days before the wedding.

Has anyone seen my spectacles?

If you'll excuse me,

I must be off to see to the...

ack!... arrangements.

Who let this mangey beast in here?

Everything alright, Preminger?

It soon will be.

What have you got there, boy?

From a silver fir tree.

What's Preminger doing

in the Western Forest?

Julian, wait! I want to hear all

about how you found Anneliese!

Ah... ah... of course, Your Majesty.

- Hey! I happen to know you've got a 5 of hearts.

- What do you mean you know?

- I saw it!

- You mean you cheated!

Yeah.

I mean, no!

Help, help!

Please, help me!
