"KISS CINDERELLA GOODBYE"
Words & Music by Johnny Vanderlip, Jr. © 2001

Cinderella you've got the blues today
You're disappointed in your usual way
You've said goodbye to yet another man
You just don’t seem to understand

(chorus)
It’s time to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye
You’ve got to open your eyes
Prince Charming’s never gonna make it all right
You’ve got to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye

You tell me that you're so easy to please
But you expect a man to fill all of your needs
You say you shouldn't have to worry about a thing
You want a prince who'll someday be a king

(chorus)

It’s time to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye
You’ve got to open your eyes
Prince Charming’s never gonna make it all right
You’ve got to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye

(bridge)
Your glass slippers have no use
It's time to trade them in for some real shoes

So find someone to sweep you off your feet
But learn to take the bitter with the sweet
Because happy ever after you’re gonna find
Is just in fairy tales and nursery rhymes

(chorus)

It’s time to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye
You’ve got to open your eyes
Prince Charming’s never gonna make you his bride
You’ve got to Kiss Cinderella Goodbye
