You're so obliging
And so sweet
What a friend
You are to me
You're so pleasing
To the eye
You entertain us
Make us smile
We eagerly wait
At the appointed time
You're a princess
I'm a lie
We try to so hard
To make you laugh
Just to please us
You play along
They all love you
And I know why
You're too nice to be here
I am brought to shame
Yet I must acknowledge
The work of art that I survey
You're a princess
I'm a lie
You wake up
In the morning
Eagerly I watch
As you rub your bleary eyes
You're a drug
I need my "high"
They get too pushy
You stand you ground
No-one can knock you
From your throne
You're a princess
I'm a lie
