This Is The Thanks I Get?!

I can't help it if mirrors love my face
It's genetics, yeah, I got these genes from outer space
Peep the name, I'm magnificent
I put the "I" in omnipotent
I'm passionate, I'm not petulant
Someone praise me for my benevolence
Um, just look, he-he

I'd give the clothes off Benito's back
If you really needed that
I'd be the first one to volunteer Henry
If your home were to crumble, or if you were in trouble
I let you live here for free, and I don't even charge you rent
I clean up all your messes, and I'm always there when you need to vent

I give, and give, and give, and give
You'd think they'd all be content
And all I really want is just a little respect

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
"So brilliant," oh, that's the least you could say
There's more, admit it
You're cute, and strong, and bold, and brave, thanks
See this kingdom, I built it up
And you still complain? I'm grateful much
Hm, are you sure that you're not the prob?
I'd love to see you try and do my job

Oh-oh, I granted 14 wishes last year
Come on, that's a high percent
And now you're questionin' your king?
Disrespect, I just underwent
You know I always got your back
Yeah, really though it's no sweat
Since the day you were born, and the day that we met

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?

I didn't wanna do this
I swore, I'd never do this
But I'm hypnotized by how these pages flip
'Cause I refuse to have my power stripped

A potion, a spell, a summon, a curse?
Anything to make that light reverse
To this book, I don't wanna be tethered, but
Desperate times call for desperate measures

Brr, where was I? Oh, yeah
There's a traitor in this town, and still I remain unbent
Come out now, explain yourself
I'm sure, it's all just an accident
Well, whoever finds them first
Now, that's a wish well spent
Honestly, keeping you safe should be worth every cent

And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
And this is the thanks I get?
This is the thanks I get?
Oh, this is the thanks I get? (I get, I get, I get)
