lyrics

BELLE OF THE BALL

Sister, it’s time to get going.
So, what will you wear
to hide all the butterflies?
Sister, your long slip is showing
from under that dress
Grandma made from the last table cloth.

Oh, Princess,
you are the family doll,
our most prized possession,
the belle of the ball.

Sister, if we paint up your nails,
then the dirty won’t show.
Let Grandma pull back
all your pretty hair.
Sister, I know it must be murder
when she tugs much too tight,
twisting tornado turnovers
into your tender head.

Oh, Princess,
you are the family doll,
our most prized possession,
the belle of the ball.
