Sink/Swim
Once upon a time
There were stairs to climb
And the princess
Well, she tried
Did her very best
Took on every test
Didn't notice
Something died
Now she's stuck inside
Walls of gilt and pride
She made her world
Such a clever girl
Thought she found a prince
But she should have listened to her head
She's here instead
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
More love, more friends
When does it end?
They don't care bout what you think
So you swim or you will sink
Once upon a time
There were stairs to climb
And the princess
Well, she tried
Did her very best
Took on every test
Didn't notice
Something died
Now she's stuck inside
Walls where she can't hide
She'll face the world
For her little girl
Thought she found a prince
But she learned where all the monsters were
It's all for her
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
No love, no friends
When does it end?
It goes faster than you think
So you swim or you will sink
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
More love, more friends
When does it end?
They don't care bout what you think
So you swim or you will sink
So you swim or you will sink
There were stairs to climb
And the princess
Well, she tried
Did her very best
Took on every test
Didn't notice
Something died
Now she's stuck inside
Walls of gilt and pride
She made her world
Such a clever girl
Thought she found a prince
But she should have listened to her head
She's here instead
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
More love, more friends
When does it end?
They don't care bout what you think
So you swim or you will sink
Once upon a time
There were stairs to climb
And the princess
Well, she tried
Did her very best
Took on every test
Didn't notice
Something died
Now she's stuck inside
Walls where she can't hide
She'll face the world
For her little girl
Thought she found a prince
But she learned where all the monsters were
It's all for her
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
No love, no friends
When does it end?
It goes faster than you think
So you swim or you will sink
Each day, each night
Work hard, do right
Put the makeup on and then
Do it all over again
More love, more friends
When does it end?
They don't care bout what you think
So you swim or you will sink
So you swim or you will sink
