RITA:
C/GI was brought up in taffeta dresses
And G7sus4taught to be pretty and precious
Spending my G5playtimes with plastic princesses
Who all had E7/G#bodies just utterly ludicrous
Minuscule Amwaists and huge G#boobs
And it's Am/Gall nippAm/F#les and no Fpubes and no Dm9creases
I mean D#Jesus it's pretty conC/Efusing
EsGpecially at F6.
In that fairytale C/Gworld all the girls end up happy ever after.
F/GWooing their knights in shining armour.
But some Gnights down the track
You can bet they'll be trapped
ESpending nights 'n shining armour.
While their Amknights spend their Am/Gnights at the barAm/F#
Or at a Am/Fball with some Amharlot
I'm not Am/Gbitter it's just Am/F#better
That I don't F6fall for all that Amromantic G#bullshit
C/GNow that I'm D7/F#older.
Though I Dm9don't mind the thought of being tossed C/Eover a shoulder
And trotted Foff to a mansion by some D7/F#ruggedly handsome Gman in a fireman helmet
And E/G#have him just use me for Amsex.Am/G
As I Dm7say - it's a F/Glittle comCplex.
COne day, E7some day
my Amprince may come
But it dD7oesn't seem likely
But Dm7even if he came and he Cliked me
It's D7likely he'd be G#5not quite my type.
CSome day, E7they say
He'll come Amridin' up on the D7back of a horse
Dm7But of course
I'm aCllergic to horses
D7How will I tell him
He'll G7#5just have to sell him.
I went to D/Aschool with a girl
I remember her well
She was G/Apretty smart - and pretty as hell
Her folks had a Afarm
But she wouldn't stay of course
She wanted prince F#7/A#charming
So she went to LBmA of course
Managed to seF#7b9duce a
Famous actor or producer
Shacked up in a Bm9house in the hills
With a cat and a juicer
- and a F#7b9fancy car
- and a tennis court.
But the guy Bm9wasn't quite
The catch she'd G#7b9thought she caught.
He C#m9treats her like trash
Then Byou know the drill
Takes his Ecat and his cash
And finds Asome younger girl
So she's Eleft with a stupid corAvette
And an Bempty swimming pool
Which she G#7/B#fills with regretG#7
C#mSmart girl C#m/Bbut kinda Adumb...
And I'd F#m7rather be lonely
Than F#7sit on my fanny
BWaiting for my prince to B7come-
EOne day, G#7some day
He'll come C#msweeping in
And F#sweep me off my feet
And F#mspend the next 4 decades
EWanting to cheat on me
F#9Getting less handsome
And Bfighting his dragons.
He'd Cmknow what to wear
He'd have a Bbfull head of hair
And his Ebeyes would be brown
Or blue.
AbOr green.
Well, I don't care.
And his Ebbody would be toned with those
AbPecks you get at the Bbsus4gym
But he won't spend all of his time at the gym.
And he'll Cmlove reading books,
He'll be an Bbexcellent cook,
He'll be good Eblooking but not to awaAbre of his looks.
He'll be Ebtender but tough
And Absmart but not smug
And aBbttentive but not fawning
And he'll smell good in the morning
And he'll dCmance,
-and like hiking and Bbbaking
And biking I'm not Ebpicky
I just ask that he Ablikes me
And I like him and I'd Ebrather be alone
If the Abonly other option
Is to Bbsuccumb and settle down
With some G7/Bcondescending clown
With a great Cmrating from some Cm9/Bbdating service
Some Cm6/Aself professing AbmMr. Perfect
Another Cmnarcissistic Cm9/Bblegend
Made a Cm6/Amillion out of Ab6hedge funds
Another Cm7sexually Cm7/Bbineffectual
Cm/ASelf-obsessing Abmmetrosexual
Cm7Pseudo-intelG/Blectual
Getting Cm/Bbdrunk and exiCm/Astential.
AbEvery time the Steelers lose a Ebgame
Fm7Thanks - but perBb7#5haps another day.Bb7
EbOne day, Gsome day
My Cmprince may come
But I Fwon't hold my breath
There's Fmonly divorcees
And Ebweirdos left
And F9weird is fine
But Ab/Bbnot all the time
EbOne day,Gsome day
My Cm7prince will come
So the F9fairytale said
Fm30 years later it's Ebstill in my head
That if F7I screw a frog
I will Ab/Bbwake up in a four-poster bed.Eb
