Barbie The Princess And The Pauper - I Am A Girl Like You lyrics

(SPOKEN Anneliese)

I'm savoring my first and last taste

of freedom

Befor gettign married next week

to a total stranger...

(SPOKEN Erica)

At least you're not an indentured

Servant

(SPOKEN Anneliese)

Indentured servant?

Erica

If I'd like to have my breakfast hot

Madame Carpe will make me pay,

And I have to fetch the eggs myself

And the barn's a mile away.

It's cold and wet

But still I get an omelet on my plate,

But in my head I'm back in bed

Snuggled up and sleeping late.

(SPOKEN Anneliese)

Really?

(SPOKEN Erica)

Really, but it's alright I mean I'm

Used to it

And you?

(SPOKEN Anneliese)

Well...

(SPOKEN Erica)

Well?

Anneliese

If I want some eggs I ring the bell

And the maid comes running in,

And she serves them on a silver tray

And she brings the cookie tin.

And while I eat she rubs my feet

And strolling minstrels play,

But I'd rather be in my library

Reading science books all day.

Erica

I'm just like you

You are?

You're just like me

There's somewhere else we'd rather

be

Somewhere that's ours

Somewhere that dreams come true

Yes I am a girl like you.

You'd never think that it was so

But now I've met you and I know,

It's plain as day

Sure as the sky is blue

I am a girl like you.

First I choose a fabric from the rack And I pin the pattern down,

And I stitch it in the front and back

And it turns into a gown!

Anneliese

I wear my gown

Without my crown

And dance around my room

And imagine life without the strife

Of an unfamiliar groom.

I'm just like you (I think that's true)

You're just like me (Yes I can see)

Both

We take responsibility

We carry through (We carry through)

Do what we need to go.

Yes I am a girl like you.

I'm just like you (I'm just like you)

You're just like me (You're just like me)

It's something anyone can see

A heart that beats

A voice that speaks the truth

Yes I am a girl like you.
