Beauty Has A Price lyrics

[CINDERELLA]

I want to be hot toenail to lash

I'm talking blazingly hot, I mean like volcanic ash

I wanna set men on fire and make them wild with desire

I wanna dress like a queen, turn all the other girls green

Please make me a dream, you know the drill

Make me like everyone else, only a lot better still

Just like that goddess from Greece, you know, who launched all the ships

So when men stare in my eyes it's like a solar еclipse

[GODMOTHER]

I know what you're wishing for, beauty has a pricе

It's well worth the squishing, for corsets are a vice

Don't think twice, in a trice you get what you wished for

Buckle up, don't forget, beauty isn't cheap

It can cost you all you own and your beauty sleep

But forewarned and adorned, I will grant your wishes

[CINDERELLA]

I need a new look to be erased

A lotta flash and some glitz with just a smidgeon of taste

A sexy blonde or brunette, someone that I've never met

Let's go for way OTT, I wanna disappear me

[GODMOTHER]

I can take care of this, let me first explain

Get a metamorphosis, beauty equals pain

Redesigned and refined, you won't recognize you

[CINDERELLA, spoken]

It all sounds a little extreme

[GODMOTHER, spoken]

Is this really what you want to look like for the rest of your life?

[CINDERELLA, spoken]

No

[GODMOTHER]

I'll make you beautiful and it's worth the price

It's worth all you'll ever own, any sacrifice

So my child, let's go wild, you shall go with bells on

There is no magic, it's not supernatural

You will see beauty is brutal

Cold cremes and pumices, skin peels, astringents

And tight-fitting garments that bind you and pinch you

And make your extremities numb

I do miracles, you want some curves?

Let's break a rib or two

If unafraid to chance it, a surgeon with a lancet

Can bring about what you're wishing for

Though results are not guaranteed

I can achieve what you're fishing for

Though you're guaranteed to bleed

Slim her down, shape her up, beauty has a cost

We may need to tape her up but not all is lost

With some glue, staples too, it will do 'til midnight

Let's skip surgery, we haven't time

I tried something less extreme

But come a little nearer and look into the mirror

This, I believe's what you're wishing for

[CINDERELLA]

Who's that ravishing, head-turning girl that I don't recognize

And can it really be that she is really me?

[CINDERELLA, spoken]

Why did I spend so long resisting this? I look so much better

[GODMOTHER, spoken]

Now put these shoes on

They're made of solid crystal so don't be surprised if they cut into the skin the teensiest bit

[GODMOTHER]

Glittering, glamorous

[CINDERELLA]

God, these shoes are tight

[GODMOTHER]

He'll be feeling amorous, spellbound at first sight

[CINDERELLA]

I'm so fine, it's a sign, he'll be mine by midnight

[GODMOTHER]

But my pet, don't forget, beauty has a price

You will be in agony, let me be precise

In this frock, by twelve o'clock, you will be in torment

Go ahead, knock him dead, just be home by midnight

[CINDERELLA]

Look at me Cinderella I'm on fire after all

There's a boy I've set my sight on

Could it be Cinderella will be belle of the ball

And I'll gladly dance the night on

Leave a light on

[GODMOTHER]

Like I said, knock 'em dead, beauty has a price

Just be home by twelve in bed, better yet on ice

In those shoes, she will bruise, best be home by midnight

Best be home by midnight
