Nightwatchman, The - Flesh Shapes The Day lyrics

The life of a princess

From her birth is well defined

She must humbly serve her country

Play the part she's been assigned

She guards the hopes of her people

Weak and mighty, rich and poor

Who could ever ask for more?

Who could ever ask for more?

I wanna be like be other girls

Climb up a tree like other girls can

Just to be other free like other girls

Get to be

To slouch when I sit

To eat a whole cake

Feel the sun on my feet

Get dirty, and silly

Be anything I want to be

Dance around in my underwear

To run really fast

To get rid of this fan

To eat a whole cake

Get crazy, with frosting

No escorts

No manners

No nursemaids

No worries

No hands folded perfect

Like holding a lily

No pinchy shoes

I wanna be like be other girls

Scrape up my knee like other girls can

Just to be other free like other girls

Get to be

To speak for myself

To sing way off key

To marry someone I've met

Who loves me for me

No escorts

No manners

No nursemaids

No worries

No hands folded perfect

Like holding a lily

No pinchy shoes

I wanna be like be other girls

Climb up a tree like other girls can

Just to be other free like other girls

Get to be
