Prince charming is a fairy tale

Prince charming is never coming
i've gotta stop scanning the horizon
cuz im never
gonna find him

he broke my heart
i sent him away
he's not coming back
there is not forever and a day

happily ever after is a dream
it's great at night
it makes you smile
but it never works in the light

and prince charming is never coming
i've gotta stop scanning the horizon
cuz im never
gonna find him

i may be rapunzel
but i cut off my hair
and then there was nothing
with which to lift him through the air

i've gotta save myself
nobody's gonna do it for me
everyone sees the lock
but only i have the key

cuz prince charming is never coming
i've gotta stop scanning the horizon
cuz im never
gonna find him

who would want
a princess
with mussed up hair
in a torn dress

surely not he
the one with whom i'm supposed to be
i don't get a prince
at least not since
i threw him away
and our forever and a day

and prince charming is never coming
i've gotta stop scanning the horizon
cuz im never
gonna find him
