Cinderella’s crying her eyes out once again
This little secretive affair causes her heart such pain
But Prince Charming doesn’t touch her anymore
And she gets all the attention from the guy at the drugstore.
Belle is being haunted by a recurring nightmare
The truth of her “love” gives her quite some fear
Before the transformation took place she used to call the Beast honey
But all the while, all she wanted was to get her hands on his money.
See fairytales always end with a kiss and “Happily ever after.”
But we don’t know what really comes later
The drama, the cheating, the abuse for ages
What really happens after those last final pages?
Sleeping Beauty is once again up in her bed
Ecstasy and crack will leave her for dead
Through her vein she sticks a needle
Hoping to fall into a deep sleep like when she touched that spindle.
Ariel is worrying herself thin
Cuz her little girl is pregnant at fourteen
Doesn’t even know who the daddy is
For all she does is spend time on her back and knees.
See fairytales always end with a kiss and “Happily ever after.”
But we don’t know what really comes later
The drama, the cheating, the abuse for ages
What really happens after those last final pages?
