Kim Crosby - A Very Nice Prince / First Midnight / Giants in the Sky lyrics

A Very Nice Prince Cinderella: He's a very nice Prince Wife: And--? Cinderella: And-- It's a very nice Ball Wife: And--? Cinderella: And-- When I entered, they trumpeted Wife: And--? The Prince--? Cinderella: Oh, the Prince?... Wife: Yes, the Prince! Cinderella: Well, he's tall Wife: Is that all? Did you dance? Is he charming? They say that he's charming Cinderella: We did nothing but dance Wife: Yes--? And--? Cinderella: And it made a nice change Wife: No, the Prince! Cinderella: Oh, the Prince?... Wife: Yes, the Prince Cinderella: He has charm for a Prince, I guess... Wife: Guess? Cinderella: I don't meet a wide range... Wife: Did he bow? Was he cold and polite? Cinderella: And it's all very strange... Wife: Did you speak? Did he flirt? Could you tell right away he was royalty? Is he sensitive, clever, well-mannered, considerate, pa**ionate, charming, as kind as he's handsome, as wise as he's rich, is he anything you've ever wanted? Cinderella: Would I know... Wife: Well I know.. Cinderella: But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it? Wife: Would I know... Cinderella: All I know is... Wife: I never wish... Cinderella: What I want most of all... Wife: Just within reason Cinderella: Just to know what I want Wife:When you know you can't have what you want Where's the profit in wishing? Both:He's a very nice Prince... Wife: What I wouldn't give to be in your shoes Cinderella: Will you look over there, an enormous beanstalk Growing next to that little cottage Wife:I mean slippers as pure as gold! Cinderella: I must get home! Wife: I need your shoes! [Milky White moos and the runs off the stage] Wife: [to Milky White] Wait! First Midnight Baker: One midnight gone... Mysterious Man: No knot unties itself... Witch: Sometimes the things you most wish for are not to be touched... Princes: The harder to get, the better to have... CP: Agreed? RP: Agreed Florinda: Never wear mauve at a ball... Lucinda: Or pink... Stepmother [to stepdaughters]: Or open your mouth... Jack: The difference between a cow and a bean Is a bean can begin an adventure... Jack's Mother [at Jack]: Slotted spoons don't hold much soup... LRRH: The prettier the flower, the farther from the path... Cinderella's Father: The closer to the family, the closer to the wine... Rapunzel [offstage]: Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah... Witch: One midnight gone!... Granny: The mouth of a wolf's not the end of the world... Steward: A servant is not just a dog, to a Prince.... Cinderella: Opportunity is not a lengthy visitor... Wife: You may know what you need But to get what you want Better see that you keep what you have [All overlapping] Baker: One midnight gone... Witch: Sometimes the things you most wish for are not to be touched... Princes: The harder to get, the better to have... CP: Agreed? RP: Agreed Baker: One midnight gone...one midnight gone... Florinda: Never wear mauve at a ball... Lucinda: Or pink... Jack's Mother: Slotted spoons don't hold much soup... Baker's Wife: To get what you want better keep what you... LRRH: The prettier the flower... All: One midnight one midnight one midnight gone.. Into the woods Into the woods Into the woods, then out of the woods And home before-- Giants In the Sky Jack: There are giants in the sky! There are big, tall, terrible giants in the sky! When you're way up high, and you look below At the world you've left and the things you know Little more than a glance is enough to show You just how small you are When you're way up high, and you're on your own In a world like none that you've ever known Where the sky's like lead, and the earth's like stone You're free to do whatever pleases you Exploring things you'd never dared Cause you don't care When suddenly there's A big, tall, terrible giant at the door A big, tall, terrible lady giant sweeping the floor And she gives you food, and she gives you rest And she draws you close to her giant breast And you know things now, that you never knew before After the sky Only just when you've made a friend and all And you know she's big, but you don't feel small Someone bigger than her comes along the hall To swallow you for lunch! And your heart is lead, and your stomach's stone And you're really scared, being all alone And it's then that you miss all the things you've known And the world you've left, and the little you own; The fun is done You steal what you can, and run! And you scramble down, and you look below At the world you left, and the things you know.. The roof, the house, and your mother at the door The roof, the house, and the world you'd never thought to explore And you think of all of the things you'd seen And you wish that you could live in-between And you're back again, only different than before After the sky There are giants in the sky! There are big, tall, terrible, awesome, scary Wonderful giants in the sky!
