[00:12.48]There was a castle by a waterfall,
[00:15.35]With a pink and purple wall,
[00:17.03]And a princess living there.
[00:19.33]She had no parents and was all alone,
[00:22.38]She got by on her own,
[00:23.95]And she liked it pretty well.
[00:26.45]’Cause she never wore her socks,
[00:28.37]She had a pet snake,
[00:30.02]She bought a red guitar,
[00:31.61]And she ate a whole cake.
[00:33.31]And there wasn’t anybody there to tell her what to do,
[00:36.44]So she did what she wanted to.
[00:39.27]Everybody knew the story of the princess who saved herself.
[00:45.02](Princess who saved herself)
[00:45.22](Princess who saved herself)
[00:48.43]There was a dragon with a pointy tail,
[00:51.31]He was bigger than a whale,
[00:53.07]And his breath was terrible.
[00:55.32]He scared the princess when he came around,
[00:58.13]Tried to burn the castle down,
[00:59.83]But she caught him by his tail.
[01:02.48]Then she tied him to a tree,
[01:04.05]So the dragon couldn’t fly,
[01:06.09]She told him he was mean,
[01:07.64]And it made the dragon cry.
[01:09.39]When he finally apologized she offered him some tea,
[01:12.57]He accepted it graciously.
[01:15.28]Now he visits every weekend with the princess who saved herself.

[01:28.53](Bridge phone conversation…)
[01:32.17]There was a witch who was an evil queen,
[01:56.36]She was wrinkled old and green,
[01:58.16]And she hated everyone.
[02:00.51]She saw the princess in her silver gown,
[02:03.34]Put the poison apple down,
[02:05.02]Asked her where she bought her clothes.
[02:07.47]So they got the witch a dress,
[02:09.21]Put some make-up on her face,
[02:11.15]They started up a band,
[02:12.78]And the dragon played the bass.
[02:14.43]Every Saturday they play until their fingertips are sore,
[02:17.70]Mostly Math Rock and Cuddle Core.
[02:20.45]And they call themselves The Kingdom Of The Princess Who Saved Herself.
[02:26.46](Princess who saved herself)
[02:28.11](Princess who saved herself)
[02:29.28]The princess who saved herself.
