I might be a princess,
But ya won’t catch me at court.
I’m happy in a frilly dress,
or mud in any sport.
I know my p’s and q’s and yes,
You best not sell me short.
I ain’t no damsel in distress.
I ain’t the fairy tale sort.
Though dragons would ensnare me,
and witches apple-dare me,
those bullies best beware me,
I’m a princess—
With really, really, really big…brains.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
My beauty is a given.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
I’m also smart and driven.
I’m tough enough to handle this.
No, I don’t need prince charming’s kiss.
I’ve made my path and none but I can choose it!
I’ve gotta a brain, and I know how to use it.
I’m a princess—
Got that? A princess!
I’m a princess
With really, really, really, big…brains.
A prince once said, “Let down your hair!”
I said, “Have you no compassion?”
One prince said, “This glass shoe’s for you.”
I said, “No! That’s last year’s fashion.”
I need no prince to brave me,
To wine or dine or save me.
I’m good with what God gave me—
I’m a princess—
With really, really, really, big…brains.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
My beauty is a given.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
I’m also smart and driven.
I’m tough enough to handle this.
No, I don’t need prince charming’s kiss.
I’ve made my path and none but I can choose it!
I’ve gotta a brain, and I know how to use it.
I’m a princess—
Got that? A princess!
I’m a princess
With really, really, really, big…brains.
One prince I met was just a beast.
I said, “Got no time for jerks.”
Another prince said, “I’ll be king.”
But I like the man who works.
I want no one to tend me,
But rather comprehend me—
Don’t woo me, just befriend me,
I’m a princess—
With really, really, really, big…brains.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
My beauty is a given.
Tra-la- la-la- la-la- la!
I’m also smart and driven.

No, I don’t need prince charming’s kiss.

I’ve gotta a brain, and I know how to use it.
I’m a princess—
Got that? A princess!
I’m a princess
I’m a princess—
With really, really, really, big…brains.
