I guess you think you know this story.
You don't. The
one's much more gory.
The phoney one, the one you know,
Was cooked up years and years ago,
And
to sound all soft and sappy
just to keep the children happy.
Mind you, they got the first bit
,
The bit where, in the dead of night,
The Ugly Sisters, jewels and all,
Departed for the Palace Ball,
darling little Cinderella
Was locked up in a slimy cellar,
Where rats who wanted things to eat,
Began to nibble at her
.
She bellowed 'Help!' and 'Let me out!
The Magic Fairy heard her shout.
Appearing in a blaze of
,
She said: 'My dear, are you all right?'
'All right?' cried Cindy .'Can't you see
'I feel
rotten as can be!'
She beat her fist against the wall,
And shouted, 'Get me to the Ball!
'There is a Disco at the
!
'The rest have gone and I am
!
'I want a dress! I want a coach!
'And earrings and a
brooch!
'And silver slippers, two of those!
'And lovely nylon panty hose!
'Done up like that I'll
'The handsome Prince will fall for me!'
The Fairy said, 'Hang on a tick.'
She
her wand a mighty flick
And quickly, in no time at all,
Cindy was at the Palace Ball!
It
the Ugly Sisters wince
To see her dancing with the Prince.
She held him very tight and pressed
herself
his manly chest.
The Prince himself was turned to pulp,
All he could do was gasp and gulp.
Then
struck. She shouted,'Heck!
Ive got to run to save my neck!'
The Prince cried, 'No! Alas! Alack!'
He grabbed her
to hold her back.
As Cindy shouted, 'Let me go!'
The dress was ripped from head to toe.
She ran out in her
,
And lost one slipper on the stair.
The Prince was on it like a
,
He pressed it to his pounding heart,
'The girl this slipper fits,' he cried,
'Tomorrow morn shall be my
!
I'll visit every house in town
'Until I've tracked the maiden down!'
Then rather carelessly, I fear,
He placed it on a crate of beer.
At once, one of the Ugly Sisters,
(The one whose face was blotched with
)
Sneaked up and grabbed the dainty shoe,
And quickly flushed it down the loo.
Then in its place she
put
The slipper from her own left foot.
Ah ha, you see, the plot grows thicker,
And Cindy's luck
looking sicker.
Next day, the Prince went charging down
To knock on all the doors in town.
In every
, the tension grew.
Who was the owner of the shoe?
The shoe was long and very wide.
(A normal
got lost inside.)
Also it smelled a wee bit icky.
(The owner's feet were hot and sticky.)
Thousands of
people came
To try it on, but all in vain.
Now came the Ugly Sisters' go.
One tried it on. The Prince
, 'No!'
But she screamed, 'Yes! It fits! Whoopee!
'So now you've got to marry me!'
The
went white from ear to ear.
He muttered, 'Let me out of here.'
'Oh no you don't! You made a
!
'There's no way you can back out now!'
'Off with her head!'The Prince roared back.
They chopped it
with one big whack.
This pleased the Prince. He smiled and said,
'She's prettier without her head.'
Then up
Sister Number Two,
Who yelled, 'Now I will try the shoe!'
'Try this instead!' the Prince yelled back.
He
his trusty sword and smack
Her head went crashing to the ground.
It bounced a bit and rolled around.
In the
, peeling spuds,
Cinderella heard the thuds
Of bouncing heads upon the floor,
And poked her own head
the door.
'What's all the racket? 'Cindy cried.
'Mind your own bizz,' the Prince replied.
Poor Cindy's heart was
to shreds.
My Prince! she thought. He chops off heads!
How could I marry anyone
Who does that sort of thing for f
?
The Prince cried, 'Who's this dirty slut?
'Off with her nut! Off with her nut!'
Just then, all in a blaze of light,
The Magic Fairy hove in
,
Her Magic Wand went swoosh and swish!
'Cindy! 'she cried, 'come make a
!
'Wish anything and have no doubt
'That I will make it come about!'
Cindy answered, 'Oh kind
,
'This time I shall be more wary.
'No more Princes, no more money.
'I have
my taste of honey.
I'm wishing for a
man.
'They're hard to find. D'you think you can?'
Within a minute, Cinderella
Was married to a lovely feller,
A simple jam maker by trade,
Who sold good home-made
.
Their house was filled with smiles and laughter
And they were happy ever after.
