[00:00.60] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):I’m savoring my first and last taste of freedom <
[00:03.24] Before getting married next week to a total stranger...
[00:07.78] ERIKA (SPOKEN):At least you’re not an indentured servant. <
[00:10.70] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):Indentured servant? <
[00:12.88] ERIKA (SPOKEN):If I'd like to have my breakfast hot <
[00:14.94] Madame Carp will make me pay
[00:16.91] And I have to fetch the eggs myself
[00:19.18] And the barn's a mile away
[00:21.11] It's cold and wet and still I get
[00:23.12] An omlette on my plate
[00:25.24] But in my head I'm back in bed
[00:27.45] Snuggled up and sleeping late
[00:30.24] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):Really? <
[00:31.18] ERIKA (SPOKEN):Really, but it’s alright. I mean, I’m used to it. <
[00:34.23] And you?
[00:35.32] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):Well...
[00:37.06] ERIKA (SPOKEN):Well?
[00:38.28] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):If I want some eggs I ring the bell <
[00:40.45] And the maid comes running in
[00:42.53] And she serves them on a silver tray
[00:44.50] And she brings a cookie tin
[00:46.63] And while I eat, she rubs my feet
[00:48.78] And strolling minstrels play
[00:50.80] But I'd rather be in my library reading science books all day
[00:58.67] ERIKA (SPOKEN):I'm just like you <
[01:00.06] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):You are?
[01:00.85] ERIKA (SPOKEN):You're just like me <
[01:02.86] There's somewhere else we'd rather be
[01:06.97] Somewhere that's ours
[01:09.09] Somewhere that dreams come true
[01:11.68] Yes, I am a girl like you
[01:15.40] You'd never think that it was so
[01:19.63] But now I've met you and I know
[01:24.09] It's plain as day, sure as the sky is blue
[01:28.53] That I am a girl like you
[01:33.04] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):So! You’re a singer? <
[01:35.21] ERIKA (SPOKEN):No, I work at Madame Carp’s penitentiary <
[01:38.06] Uh, I mean Dress Emporium.
[01:40.53] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):I love Madame Carp’s Dresses! <
[01:42.40] ERIKA (SPOKEN):I made the one you’re wearing. <
[01:44.52] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):You made this? <
[01:46.00] The design looks so complicated!
[01:48.33] ERIKA (SPOKEN):Oh, but it isn’t really...
[01:49.88] First I choose a fabric from the rack
[01:51.99] And I pin the pattern down
[01:54.01] And I stitch it in the front and back
[01:56.16] And it turns into a gown
[01:58.29] PRINCESS ANNELIESE (SPOKEN):I wear the gown, without my crown <
[02:00.37] And dance around my room
[02:02.44] And imagine life without the strife of an unfamiliar groom
[02:07.83] But I’d never let my Mother know.
[02:09.49] I wouldn’t want to disappoint her.
[02:11.25] ERIKA (SPOKEN):I completely understand. <
[02:14.76] PRINCESS ANNELIESE & (ERIKA):I'm just like you (I think that's true)
[02:16.67] You're just like me (Yes, I can see)
[02:18.85] BOTH:We take responsibility <
[02:23.05] PRINCESS ANNELIESE & (ERIKA):We carry through (We carry through)
[02:25.00] BOTH: Do what we need to do <
[02:27.71] ERIKA & (PRINCESS ANNELIESE):Yes, I am a girl like you
[02:31.37] BOTH:I'm just like you (I'm just like you) <
[02:33.61] You're just like me (You're just like me)
[02:35.79] BOTH:It's something anyone can see <
[02:39.93] ERIKA & (PRINCESS ANNELIESE):A heart that beats (A heart that beats)
[02:42.03] BOTH:A voice that speaks the truth <
[02:44.66] Yes, I am a girl like you!
