I'll have to find another tower somewhere
Snow White is doing dishes again
Though you know she's only waiting
But the story needs some mending
The tall blond lets out a cry of despair
'Cause Mr. Charming don't come home anymore
Says, "Would you meet me at midnight?"
Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight
And a dumb appreciation
And I break these walls 'round me
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
'Cause what else could you do with seven itty-bitty men?
'Cause I don't care for your fairytales
Says, "Would've cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair
So I sing, I hold my head down
Sleeping Beauty's in a foul mood for shame
On the next best thing, next best thing
She says, "None for you, dear Prince, I'm tired today
And she forgets why she came here
'Cause I don't care for your fairytales
On the sanctity of patience
Spent her whole life being graded
On the next best thing, next best thing
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
Than have you keep me from dreaming"
Man made up a story, said that I should believe him
And a better happy ending
Though you know she's only waiting
Though you know she's only waiting
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
I'd rather sleep my whole life away
'Cause I don't want the next best thing
Sends them to bed and she calls up a friend
On the next best thing
Can't take no more of your fairytale love
But I don't want the next best thing
Though you know she's only waiting
Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom
You worry 'bout the maiden
No, no, I don't want the next best thing
Keep away from the windows"
I don't care, I don't care
I don't care for your fairytales
