Magic Mirror
John Barnick
2:40I hate to say I told you so But, I told you so They are relentless Villains will do anything To push their way to the front What now? Ah yes The fairy godmother no one wants Maleficent I know you I walked with you Once upon a dream I know you That look in your eyes Is so familiar a gleam Ahhhhh Ha-ha-ha Frightened the knave in the mirror away, have I? Why there's no need to be frightened of me Isn't that right, my pet? I'm merely here to propose That I am the most misunderstood of all Haven't you ever been forgotten? Left off the list? Omitted from a grand affair That the entire kingdom is attending ... Except you? It's soul crushing And I know it's true That visions are seldom what they seem I've been woefully misinterpreted But if I know you I know what you'll do You'll love me at once The way you did once upon a dream Wasn't it my curse that brought "Sleeping Beauty" the kiss of true love? Hmm? I suppose you could say That the "happily ever after" of Princess Aurora was my doing Does anyone ever think of it like that? Tragically misunderstood Magic Mirror on the wall Misunderstood? Is that your call? No That would be them How perfect They've seen the light It's never wrong to make things right Ha-ha-ha They'll love me at once The way you did Once upon a dream Ha-ha-ha
