Walking through aisles of hungry stares
everyone looks as though they're in some kind of snares
Begging and pleading for just a grain of rice
just a quick look at them reminds you of mice
I think if that was me what would I do
I would need someone....but who?
Hopelessly waiting for someone to come
soak me in warm waters and take off the scum
Someone who would care for me fulfill my every need
and yes that includes looking for my bead
Someone who will stick a roof over my head
and stick me in my warm and cozy bed
Someone who will give me shoes to cover my bare feet
and will put on hip hop music, oooh that's neat
I was poor all my life and was in sadness
but hey, at least I wasn't listless
Well my fairytale has come to an end
cause I have my fingernails to mend
Hope all is well with you, wherever you may be
and not as bad as this girl in the fairytale hee hee
