Fairytale (Live At The Fillmore Version) - Sara Bareilles[00:00:01]
Cinderella's on her bedroom floor[00:00:15]
She's got a crush on the guy at the liquor store[00:00:17]
'Cause Mr Charming don't come home anymore[00:00:22]
And she forgets why she came here[00:00:24]
Sleeping Beauty's in a foul mood for shame[00:00:29]
She says "None for you dear Prince I'm tired today[00:00:31]
I'd rather sleep my whole life away[00:00:36]
Than have you keep me from dreaming"[00:00:38]
'Cause I don't care for your fairytales[00:00:42]
You're so worried 'bout the maiden[00:00:49]
Though you know she's only waiting[00:00:51]
On the next best thing next best thing[00:00:53]
Snow White is doing dishes again[00:01:02]
'Cause what else could you do with seven itty-bitty men [00:01:05]
Sends them to bed and she calls up a friend[00:01:09]
Says "Would you meet me at midnight "[00:01:12]
The tall blond lets out a cry of despair[00:01:16]
Says "Would've cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair[00:01:19]
I'll have to find another tower somewhere[00:01:24]
Keep away from the windows"[00:01:27]
'Cause I don't care for your fairytales[00:01:30]
You're so worried 'bout the maiden[00:01:37]
Though you know she's only waiting[00:01:39]
On the next best thing next best thing[00:01:41]
Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom[00:01:50]
Man made up a story said that I should believe him[00:01:53]
Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight[00:01:57]
But I don't want the next best thing[00:02:00]
So I sing I hold my head down[00:02:02]
And I break these walls 'round me[00:02:07]
Can't take no more of your fairytale love[00:02:11]
I don't care for your fairytales[00:02:19]
You're so worried 'bout the maiden[00:02:24]
Though you know she's only waiting[00:02:26]
On the next best thing[00:02:28]
I don't care I don't care[00:02:32]
You worry 'bout the maiden[00:02:38]
Though you know she's only waiting[00:02:40]
Spent her whole life being graded[00:02:42]
On the sanctity of patience[00:02:43]
And a dumb appreciation[00:02:45]
But the story needs some mending[00:02:47]
And a better happy ending[00:02:49]
'Cause I don't want the next best thing[00:02:54]
No no I don't want the next best thing[00:02:59]
