Ladies' Lady Original Cast - Masquerade

Poor Cinderella
Sits on her pumpkin
The masquerade's over
Her gown is in shreds
Poor Cinderella
Watches the hours tick by
And wonders why
Why must she be someone else if she wanted to fly
Oh, I live my life at the masquerade
Wearing another girl's smile
I laughed at all the dumb jokes they made
Even believing my guile
Why can't I be the girl that I am in my heart
Why must I spend my whole life just playing a part
Goodbye glass slipper
No prince is coming
He loved the fair maiden
He met at the ball
Not Cinderella
What lies beneath the mask
He'd never ask
She is left hollow and glumly returns to her task
I want to sing! I want to dance
I want to strip down to my underpants
Oh if I ever had the chance
I'd show to all of fucking France
The light inside of me
But... I live my life at the masquerade
Wearing another girl's smile
I laughed at all the dumb jokes they made
Even believing my guile.
Why can't I be the girl that I am in my heart
Why must I spend my whole life just playing a part
Apart
