Sara Bareilles
A Very Nice Prince
[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Now the Prince, what was he like?

[CINDERELLA]
He's a very nice Prince

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
And—?

[CINDERELLA, spoken]
And—
(sung)
It's a very nice ball

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
And—?

[CINDERELLA, spoken]
And—
(sung)
When I entered, they trumpeted

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
And—?
The Prince—?
[CINDERELLA, spoken]
Oh, the Prince…

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Yes, the Prince!

[CINDERELLA]
Well, he's tall

[BAKER'S WIFE]
Is that all?
(spoken)
Did you dance?
Is he charming? They say that he's charming

[CINDERELLA]
We did nothing but dance

[BAKER'S WIFE]
Yes—? And—?

[CINDERELLA]
And it made a nice change

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
No, the Prince!
[CINDERELLA, spoken]
Oh, the Prince…

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Yes, the Prince

[CINDERELLA, spoken]
He has charm for a Prince, I guess…

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Guess?

[CINDERELLA]
I don't meet a wide range…
And it's all very strange…

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Are you to return to the Festival tomorrow eve?

[CINDERELLA]
Uh, perhaps

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Perhaps? Oh, to be pursued by a Prince. All that pursues me is tomorrow's bread
What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes
[CINDERELLA, spoken]
Will you look over there
An enormous vine growing next to that little cottage!

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
...I mean slippers

[CINDERELLA, spoken]
It looks like a giant beanstalk rising into the sky

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
As pure as gold?

[CINDERELLA, spoken]
I must get home!

[BAKER'S WIFE, spoken]
Wait!
I need your shoes!
Hey!
Come back here!
