"Dream Girl" lyrics

"Dream Girl"
(from "Cinderella" soundtrack)

I don't care, this is life
It's not fair, it's not right
All that hope and that pride
It's a waste, it's a lie
All you want is to breathe
Little girls should run free
But your corset's too tight
And your heels are too high

This treasure you've found, bury it
The only way out, marry it
That shadow of doubt, carry it
Carry it down to your grave
The world doesn't need another dream girl
The world doesn't need another dream girl

You're too dumb, you're too young
Full of heart, so naïve
You're so blind, you're so green
You'll give up, just like me
The wings ornamental
They have no intention of letting you fly
Don't be sentimental
Some legends are born in the wrong time

This treasure you've found (Bury it)
The only way out (Marry it)
That shadow of doubt (Carry it)
Carry it down to your grave

(Bury it, marry it, carry it)
Carry it down to your grave (Marry it)
Your grave (Marry it), your grave (Carry it)

(Bury it) bury it, (Marry it) marry it, (Carry it) carry it
(The world doesn't need another dream girl)
(Bury it) bury it, (Marry it) marry it, (Carry it) carry it
(The world doesn't need another dream girl)
(Bury it) bury it, (Marry it) marry it, (Carry it) carry it
Carry it down to your grave (Your grave, your grave)

The world doesn't need another dream girl
