Forever
1,2,3
Dance with me,
Through the grand hall,
Into the ball,
Spin around,
One foot stomps the ground,
Smile real proud,
Sway to beat,
Avoiding other's feet,
Finally take a bow,
Return to your high seat,
Royalty is no treat.
Fancy dinners,
Hand shakes, smiles growing thinner,
Dresses weighing more than me,
High tea, brunch,
No normal simple lunch,
Roasts and stews,
Sparkling brews,
Fake laughter and fun,
Not allowed to act young,
Being royal is no easy feat.
How I wish for the simple life,
Free of maids and butlers,
I'd rather do dishes,
Than listen to Father's wishes,
Just one day free from the crown,
Real smiles in the town,
No fancy dances,
Just fiddlers in the street,
No long dinners,
Just meager scraps of meat,
No need to behave,
I can wander free,
This is true royalty.
