Cinderella Tried
Words and Music by Kevin Meredith

A tangled lullaby, sung breath less.
How your mother cried, you dressless,
swinging in the parent’s den, singing with your body. Amen.
Father look away! Ooh!

In certain fairy tales, the ending:
maiden takes a crown, by bending,
but I don’t feel like royalty and you can’t be a princess if you’re wenching;
Cinderella tried. Oh!

Now may the memories, come brightly;
I’ll keep seeing you, dressed lightly.
It’s no account if someone else, knows you ain’t been courting by yourself.
Wear that flower high, yeah.
