i want to be

my party okay what story should we tell
well here's my notebook it's called
rapunzel
once on the top of a
very tall tower rapunzel and her
brothers
were trapped in the power of a wicked
witch
who'd stolen them away tossed them in
that tower
and said where you'll stay
and so they did they couldn't escape i'm
recording this show
i got it on tape good good but why did
you interrupt the story
because i have a question my question is
if
no this is a one question when yes a win
question
ramble it to and away from
the tower yeah like rapunzel just
run down the stairs run around your
union and
escape escape well there were no
stairs on the tower aha
yes now that brings me to another
question
what um if there were no stairs to the
tower
yeah how did the witch get up to the top
of the
tower yes
elevator nope escalated nope
no i know i know i know i know
the witch flew up to the top of the
tower
on her broomstick no they only do that
at halloween
oh yeah i give up
the witch would stand at the base of the
tower and call
her silky strands of hair were made into
a long strong
lumpy braid up the braid the witch would
climb
did your thunder lived there a very long
time
when they were babies she and the others
rapunzel and her two brothers were
kidnapped and
trapped in this tallest of towers
i can't see the grass i can't see the
flowers
they've never heard any music at all
is that because this power's so tall no
the witch hated music
so much when she heard music
she made such an awful noise
it drowned out the sound of music made
for
miles around what is a horrible noise
sounds like naked they didn't do it no
i'm going to record it no
even if i could i wouldn't make that
horrible noise it might hurt your sweet
ears
make so much noise all along she didn't
the other half of the witch's g*ng was
her trusted
assistant my name is clang
rapunzel has only seen the witch but i'm
sly so i hide here in this ditch
ouch one day a young prince stopped
under a tree
his sidekick's initials were l
lc it sounds like me it is you
is that what i have in this story a
sidekick why not
you're my sidekick oh yes
now this prince was a singer who
traveled around
i sing my songs from town to town
because i'm a minstrel
and
not a mini stroll minstrel a traveling
musician
oh i get it and this princess sidekick
lc had a new tape recorder
just like you yeah and elsie was taping
everything the prince sang
can we get on with this oh sorry
let's rest near this tree and i'll sing
a bit ah
here on my manly chest i can feel my
heartbeat
can you feel it it goes lub
dub lub dub i like that b*at and to it i
will sing my
song my heart
bumps out a feet that began when i first
saw the light
of day and i write
most of my songs to the sound of my
heart
as it comes away
what do you mean you write your songs to
the feet of your heart
well music is done to a b*at you can
feel the b*at of your heart
go ahead put your hand on your heart
feel it
it goes love dub lub dub
now that is the b*at well i write my
songs to the b*at of my heart
love dub lub dub b*at b*at
now wandering from place to place one
day they came
face to face with the wicked witch
who filled the evening air wind
they were at times celebrated
the witch will hurt that girl i'm afraid
hey princess
why don't you get her to lower her brain
don't stare at me do it do it
roberto roberta let down your life
i know that's not it
rebecca rebecca no you
what was that girl's name
oh yeah on hearing the witch's voice
replayed
rapunzel lowered her lovely braid
i've written the words and the melody
too of a song i've created especially
for you
and i wrote your song to the b*at of my
heart love
dub lub dub be b*at b*at b*at i
know that you're there rapunzel rapunzel
lay down your long hair
i think of the moments i know we could
share
rapunzel rapunzel let down your long
hair
i promise i'll climb it with warm loving
care
rapunzel rapunzel let down your long
hair
when the witch said those words were
rotten and wrong
but prince when you sing them my heart
sings along
well that's the good news but here's
what's rotten
as they were singing they'd simply
forgotten clang
who often hung out in that ditch that's
right i've been listening
i'll snitch to the witch
now the witch was afraid of the prince
because
because of the musical things he does
yes because music which everyone enjoys
has much more power than a witch's noise
so the witch
did a really evil thing she sent
clang as a messenger from the king
i reached into my bag of witch's
supplies
and dressed clang
[Music]
in a royal disguise
hello your highness my highness speaking
oh royal prince you must come
quick your daddy the king is
very sick and as far as we can tell
only your song will make him
well rapunzel pleaded
take us to the kids begged can't
we go with you the prince said since my
daddy is sickly
i'll be traveling rather quickly and
i'll be facing dangers too
i promise i'll come back for you
my
[Music]
be heart in my heart is never
wrong so you can
know without question we'll all be
together before too long
ah three do you know what happened
then no what happened then
just as the vince and elsie were leaving
was so very upset that the prince was
leaving
that the prince's sidekick lc
gave rapunzel her audio cassette tape
recorder
now come on come on elsie give it to her
you gotta
it's part of the story and give it a
tape too come on
so that they could hear themselves
singing the prince's song
that's a good elsie mount chop
would you share your brand new birthday
present
yes i would as long as it's just for the
story
uh-huh well that's almost very kind
i know now the prince wasn't gone for
half an hour
when the evil witch ran to the tower
climbed rapunzel's braid and said
i'll cut this braid right off your head
she clipped it off she nailed it down so
it hung
she banished rapunzel and her brothers
too
but what is the banished banished is
something like vanished
she made rapunzel in the brothers
disappear from the tower
and magically reappear someplace else
where in a house far
far from anywhere
the woman who lived in that house was
surprised
when three kids popped up right before
her eyes
losing her braid has made rapunzel soar
but leaving that tape machine hurt even
more
far far from anywhere isn't so bad but
not hearing music
makes me feel sad but music isn't just
stuff you buy
you can make your music or at least we
can try
one two three one two me my heart
thumps out a b*at that began when i
first saw the light
of day and i write
most of my songs to the sound of my
heart as it comes
away when i
travel around this incredible
[Music]
[Applause]
well after a time elsie and the prince
returned to the witch's tower
and since they saw rapunzel's braided
hair
they called rapunzel i know that you're
there
hearing that the wicked witch pushed the
recorders playback switch one
two three one two three she's singing my
song
i'll climb up the brain it won't take me
long
as the prince reached the top with elsie
nearby
the witch led out of frightening cry
she shrieked and she howled a horrible
sound
so loud you could hear it from miles
around
what was the horrible noises which may
do it for
even if i could because then the same
thing that happened to prince
and elsie might happen to you and you
and you
uh oh what happened to vincent lc
the witch's noise was so horrible
that they were deafened what does
deafening mean that means they could no
longer hear
but although they were deaf and could no
longer hear
they searched for rapunzel for many a
year
till they wandered one day in total
despair
toward the house fall fall from any room
and in it rapunzel all day long had
everyone singing
the prince's song now here's your pitch
[Music]
one two three
[Music]
and i write most of my songs to the
sound of
though i'm hearing impaired and i can't
hear the song
i think i can feel the b*at of the music
pulsing through the ground underneath my
feet
and the b*at from the earth below me and
i knew right from the start
that was one that matched precisely the
b*ating of my heart
so what do you say we follow the b*at
and we won't pause the moment to sleep
or to eat
and i'm thrilled with joy as we burst
through the door of the house that we
have been
searching for
oh my prince what will we do if the
witch sees me
or if the witch sees you we'll simply
start singing our favorite song
because witches and music do not get
along the love in our music will paint
her a lot
and either she'll vanish or die on the
spot and now
let's pick something to sing as we go
let's sing of rapunzel the kindest we
know
but i want the song that paves the way
for the happy ending we share today
now there might be a fight between
sister and brother some prefer one song
and some like another i've got a
suggestion let us see whether
these two little songs can be sung
together
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
and i write all of my songs
[Music]
well that's it that's what the end the
end of box
the end of the story
i'm not going to tell that whole story
all over again that is it
for the present now my tape is good it
was it
for the present hey always turn it off
please now haley rewind it
please what are you doing well he told
the story and now i'm going to
rewind it and then we can listen to it
again
and again oh no oh come on
can i move in with you and again
[Music]
it can't be mine but we
could still be friends
forever the fun
will never end
you can't be mine but we
could still be friends
i hope that we will still be friends
i know that we'll still be friends
we will still be
[Music]
friends
