I'm savoring my first and last
Taste of freedom before getting
Married next week
To a total stranger
At least, you're not an indentured servant
Indentured servant?
If I'd like to have my breakfast hot
Madame Carp will make me pay
And I have to fetch the eggs myself
And the barn's a mile away
It's cold and wet
But still I get an omelette on my plate
But in my head I'm back in bed
Snuggled up and sleeping late
Really?
Really
But it's all right
I mean, I'm used to it
And you?
Well
Well?
If I want some eggs I ring the bell
And the maid comes running in
And she serves them on a silver tray
And she brings a cookie tin
And while I eat, she rubs my feet
And strolling minstrels play
But I'd rather be in my library
Reading science books all day
I'm just like you
You're just like me
There's somewhere else we'd rather be
Somewhere that's ours
Somewhere that dreams come true
Yes I am a girl like you
You'd never think that it was so
But now I've met you and I know
It's plain as day
Sure as the sky is blue
I am a girl like you
So, you're a singer?
No, I work at Madame Carp's penitentiary
Uh, I mean, Dress Emporium
I love Madame Carp's dresses
I made the one you're wearing
You made this? The design looks so complicated
Oh, but it isn't really
First I choose a fabric from the rack
And I pin the pattern down,
And I stitch it in the front and back
And it turns into a gown
I wear the gown
Without my crown
And dance around my room
And imagine life without the strife
Of an unfamiliar groom
But I'd never let my mother know
I wouldn't want to disappoint her
I completely understand
I'm just like you
You're just like me
We take responsibility
We carry through
Do what we need to do
Yes I am a girl like you
I'm just like you
You're just like me
It's something anyone can see
A heart that beats
A voice that speaks the truth
Yes I am a girl like you
