Cinderella
Daughtry Lyrics

Dressed in red, you're scooping litter from the cats
You are doing household chores dressed in red clothes and scooping litter from the cats.

I thought we had someone for that
I was under the impression that we had a helper assigned for the task of scooping litter.

But by the looks of things you fired the maid again
It seems like you have fired the maid yet again by the current disposition of the things.

Yeah I confess, I know the floor won't clean itself
I acknowledge the fact that the floor won't get cleaned on its own.

And you're worried half to death
You are overly anxious about something.

About the things that just won't matter in the end
You are worrying about things that won't have any impact in the long run.

Take off those shoes
Remove your shoes.

Looks like you could really use a glass slipper
You seem like you need a magical shoe like a glass slipper.

Yeah I know it's been a pisser
I understand that it has been a difficult time for you.

So one strong zipper might suffice
A sturdy zipper could be a substitute for a glass slipper.

Come on girl, I'm begging please
Please, I request you.

Get off your knees, I got the keys
Stand up, I have the keys.

And I'll pick you up at midnight
I will collect you at midnight.

In my suit up pumpkin ride
I will arrive in a car that resembles a pumpkin.

'Cause you're my Cinderella
You are my Cinderella.

We're two birds of a feather
We are compatible and similar.

I'll even sing to you acapella
I will sing without any instrumental accompaniment.

You're so hella good looking tonight
You look exceptionally attractive tonight.

Whenever you need some shelter
Whenever you require protection.

We can stand under my umbrella
We can take shelter under my umbrella.

Together
In each other's company.

Need no fortune teller to see it's forever with you
It is apparent that I will be with you forever without the need for a fortune teller.

Oh no, it's forever with you
It is no coincidence that it will be forever with you.

Don't watch the clock,
Do not pay attention to the clock.

I paid some dude to make it stop
I paid someone to make the clock stop ticking.

But we won't worry 'bout tomorrow
We won't be concerned about the future.

There's no sorrow in this fairytale I wrote
The fairytale that I have scripted does not include any sorrow.

I gotta say
I have to admit.

You still take my breath away
You still leave me breathless.

That look reminds me of that day
That expression on your face reminds me of a certain day.

You scratched your number on that yellow poster note
You wrote your phone number on a yellow poster note.

Check out those stars
Take a look at those stars.

I picked 'em up one day on Mars
I collected them from Mars one day.

And you thought I was at the bar
You assumed I was out drinking.

Well okay maybe there's a little truth to that
Perhaps there is some element of veracity to that statement.

But okay maybe that's a stretch
That could be regarded as an exaggeration.

And I'm your kind of fella
I am your kind of guy.

I wanna kiss you there and tell ya'
I want to kiss you in that spot and say.

Yeah and I mean forever with you, oh
Yes, I intend on being with you forever.

I know it's forever with you
I am certain that it will be forever with you.
