Lyrics
(Intro – spoken, cheeky)
Step right up, ladies and gents!
Mind the dragons, mind the shoes!
Once upon a time just tripped and fell…
And now the story’s got the blues!
(Verse 1)
Little Red ridin’ Cinderella’s coach,
Glass slippers squeakin’ on a wolfskin rug.
Goldilocks knockin’ on a giant’s door,
Says, “This porridge tastes like war!”
(Pre-Chorus)
Mirror, mirror lost its mind,
Snow White’s singin’ outta time.
Pumpkin clocks go tick-tock mad,
Fairy godmothers feelin’ bad!
(Chorus)
🎶 Fairy tales mixed up, upside down!
Kings in rags, fools wear the crown!
Once upon a time went “Oops!”
Now it’s singin’ with the wrong-way troops!
Fairy tales mixed up, hear ’em shout!
Happy endings wandered out!
Clap your hands and stomp your feet,
’Cause nonsense never sounded so sweet! 🎶
(Verse 2)
Jack sold beans to Sleeping Beauty,
She woke up swingin’ groovy duty.
The Three Pigs playin’ double bass,
While the Big Bad Wolf leads the brass in lace!
(Pre-Chorus)
Seven dwarfs in Robin Hood hats,
Stealin’ pies from alley cats.
Prince Charming missed his cue,
Ran off with a mermaid or two!
(Chorus)
🎶 Fairy tales mixed up, round and round!
Dragons tap-dance, knights unbound!
Castles wobble, witches swing,
Every frog thinks he’s the king!
Fairy tales mixed up, oh what a sight!
Daytime dreams on Saturday night!
Laugh it loud, don’t try to fix—
The magic’s in the messy mix! 🎶
(Bridge – vaudeville break)
Spoken fast, banjo and brass:
“Is that a prince?” – “No, it’s a cat!”
“Who stole the crown?” – “Who cares, my dear?”
Pass the rhyme and grab a beer!
(Chorus – big & brassy)
🎶 Fairy tales mixed up, shout Hooray!
Once upon a jam session day!
Stories crash like cymbals clash,
Happily ever after—SMASH!
Fairy tales mixed up, don’t be shy!
If it rhymes, just let it fly!
Spin the page, tear the script,
Reality just slipped and tripped! 🎶
(Outro – ensemble, big finish)
So if your story’s not quite right,
Sing it louder, hold it tight!
When the book won’t stay in line—
Mix it up…
And call it fine! 🎭🎶
