Perfect Little Princess Lyrics by Laura Murphy

The Lovers Original Cast Recording

2024

[HERMIA]
Daddy, you were always on my side
You'd say “Give her a chance, honey, let the girl dance”
Daddy, within you I could confide
You'd say “Give me your hand
I will always understand”
The time goes by and people change
You know we're not the same
You question me at every turn
But there's something you should learn
I'm not your perfect little princess
Twirling in a pink dress
Saying “Daddy, you're the best”
And falling asleep on your chest
Reading fairy tales while you bounce me up and down on your knee
It's time to face the facts – I've become a queen
[COMPANY]
Bow down, bow down
[HERMIA]
I’ve become a queen
[COMPANY]
Bow down, bitches, bow down
[HERMIA]
Whoopsie, it looks like I've outgrown ya
Whoopsie, it's been nice to know ya
Looks like I’ve come into my zone
I no longer need to bend down at your throne
Whoopsie, you see you don't own me
You no longer need to chaperone me
Hear this, it's my testimony:
Nothing's going to stop our matrimony!
[EGEUS]
I can't let you ruin your life
[HERMIA]
I can't let you ruin my life
[EGEUS]
There are better men
[HERMIA]
Oh no
[EGEUS]
I promise you’ll love again
[HERMIA]
Daddy, you've forgotten freedom
Daddy, you've forgotten trust
Daddy, you've forgotten love
[COMPANY]
Love
[HERMIA]
You were my knight in shining armour
Held no one above ya
But since we lost mama
Your heart is growing harder
I only ask that you open up your heart
And see
He's the only one for me
Daddy, you would love who I've become
I'm tenacious, it's true
I guess I got that from you
Daddy, you would like this man I love
He's creative and calm
He reminds me of mum
I know a big part of you broke
And never got to mend
[EGEUS]
I never got to mend
[HERMIA]
I only hope you find the strength
To feel again
[EGEUS]
I wanna feel again
[HERMIA]
With or without you, I'm gonna do this
But I'd prefer if you walked me through this
Hand in hand
[EGEUS]
Hold my hand
[HERMIA]
'Cause I'm still a I'm a queen
Who does not need you
But that don't mean that I want to lose you
You don't have to lose me too
[COMPANY]
Well, Egeus, whatcha gonna say, boy?
Will you object or will you give it the OK, boy?
Well, Egeus, what's it gonna be, man?
It's your time in
3, 2, 1
[EGEUS]
Whoopsie, your words do not sway me
Whoopsie, you wish to betray me
Don't listen to a word that she say
She manipulates in the way she portrays me
You're heading for a life of regret
His delusions are filling up your head
He will hurt you no matter what he says
And I will not be there to pick up the pieces
[COMPANY]
Whoa-ohh
[HERMIA]
I'm not your perfect little princess
[EGEUS]
You have lost all common sense
[HERMIA]
Our love is as true as it gets
[EGEUS]
I didn't raise a daughter like that
[HERMIA]
It's in my death
[EGEUS]
You're gonna regret it
[HERMIA]
I know what's best
[EGEUS]
I know what's best
[COMPANY]
She's not a perfect little princes
Twirling in a pink dress
[EGEUS]
Good luck, little girl
[HERMIA]
This is my life and I’ll do what I want
Now that I've unleashed the queen within me
This is my first decree
Whether or not you agree
He's the only one for me
