TO BE A PRINCESS from Barbie as the princess and the pauper (2004) - performed by Alessandra Juliani & Julie Stevens

(french version available in previous chapters)

[Julian, Spoken]
Now remember. No nagging, bragging, sweating, fretting, slipping, tripping, slurping, burping, twittering, or frittering allowed. Stay present, stay pleasant, stay proud

(sung)
To be a princess
Is to know which spoon to use
To be a princess
Is a thousand pairs of shoes

To maintain a regal gait
Leave the parsley on your plate
And be charming but detached
And yet amused

To be a princess
Is to never be confused

Do a plié and never fall
Don't ever stray from protocol
All through the day
There's just one way
You must behave

Do keep a grip and never crack!
Stiff upper lip and arch the back!
Bend from above
And always wear your gloves
And wave

Shoulders back and
Tummy in and
Pinky out and
Lift the chin and
Slowly turn the head from
Side to side

[Erika]
I see now

[Julian]
Breathing gently
Stepping lightly
Smile brightly
Nod politely
Never show a thing you feel inside
Glide!

To be a princess
Is to always look your best
To be a princess
Is to never get to rest!

Sit for a portrait, never squirm!
Sleep on a mattress extra firm!
Speak and be clever
Never at a loss for words
Curtsey to every count and lord
Learn how to play the harpsichord!
Sing lullabies and always harmonize in thirds

[Julian and Erika]
Thirds, thirds!

[Julian]
And... She has beautiful eyes
Your spirits rise
When she walks in the room

[Erika, Spoken]
I see

[Julian]
Doors close
And the chemistry grows
She's like a rose
That's forever in bloom!*voice cracks*

[Julian and Erika]
Do a plié and don't
Ever, ever, ever fall!
Never show dismay
And be there when people call!
Be prepared whatever royal life will bring

Do keep a grip and don't
Ever, ever, ever crack!
Take a dainty sip
Never ever turn your back!
There's a time and place and
Way for everything!

[Julian]
To be a princess
Is to never make your bed
To be a princess
Is to always use your head!
