Hey, look around.
Where is that girl
who used to hang around town?
the one who always knew
she'd be so renowned?
Not just a face in the crowd.

Day after day.
waiting for her prince
to take her away.
to the life that would be
hers for a song.
How come he's taking so long?

Cinderella's gone.
She's gone away.
And she s gonna be a star
over in the U.S.A.
Cinderella's gone.
She's gone for good this time.
And she's gonna show us how
she turns the water into wine.

She's packed up her crown.
and caught the last freight
for Tinseltown.
To join her sisters there
amidst the elite,
just a half mile down the street
