Little Baby Bum - Princess And The Pea (Story)
A long time ago lived a Prince, oh yes
Who wanted to marry a real princess
From town to town and city to city
He met lots of girls, who were really pretty
Then one night, a fierce storm clattered
The palace was rattled and totally battered
The door bell rang; “who could that be?”
On a night so wet and windy?!
The door opened; and who stood there?
A soaking wet girl with sopping wet hair
Where she stood she formed a puddle
"I'm sorry to bother I don't mean to trouble"
The Queen said kindly: "That's all right dear"
You'll be our guest, you can stay right here"
The girl took a bath the queen found a pea
And placed it under the mattress you see
When we say "mattress" we mean there were plenty
Stacked so high there were probably twenty!
Straight to sleep, no time for yawning
Tick tock tick tock. Soon t'was morning
The girl looked like she hadn't slept
"There was something wrong with my bed
"I tossed and turned all through the night
"I couldn't sleep well, try as I might!"
"This girl sat here is the real McCoy
A real princess; not pretend. Oh boy!"
Only a princess could feel that pea
And be kept awake so horribly
The search was over but would she agree
To marry the prince. Well...did she?
Yes was the answer! Yes, she said yes!
Everything was perfect; the castle, her dress
Indeed, this story ends wonderfully
The prince, the princess and the pea
Yes they lived happily ever after
Fairy tales rarely end in disaster!
