"In My Own Little Corner" (Reprise)

I am in the Royal Palace of all places

When I meet the finest prince you've ever seen

And the color on my two stepsister's faces

Is a queer sort of sour apple green

I am coy and flirtatious when alone with the Prince

I'm the belle of the ball in my own little corner

All alone, in my own little chair

Fol-de-rol and fiddledy-dee

Fiddledy-faddledy-foddle

All the wishes in the world are poppycock and twaddle!

Oh, Crazy Marie, are you mocking me with your gibberish?

Fol-de-rol and fiddledy-dee

Fiddledy-faddledy-foodle

All the dreamers in all the world are dizzy in the noodle

Well, so what if I do have a dream to see the Prince again?

And tell him what life in his kingdom is really like? And what it could be?

Exactly, and then to have him fall in love with you?

No one will fall in love with me

Why do you come to visit me tonight?

I just knew I would find you in the same little chair

In the pale pink mist of a foolish dream

I am being foolish

Then be foolish with me, what would you dream of?

An invitation to the ball, I guess

Right here, there's an invitation

But it's torn

Don't wait for everything to be perfect, just go

What else would you dream of?

Uh, a white gown, I imagine, a beautiful white gown sewn up with pearls, and jewels

And a tiara of diamonds

And on your feet?

Why, the most beautiful grosgrain pumps, I'd imagine

Oh, better, the Venetian glass that your stepmother so loves in her trinkets and baubles

An entire pair of shoes made only of Venetian glass

How silly, I'd be the envy of all. But, uh, how would I get to the ball?

Oh, well, that pumpkin over there?

Yes?

I'll turn it into a golden carriage

Oh, and horses?

These mice trapped in this cage

And a, a fox as a footman and, and a raccoon as a driver

You are crazy, Marie, why, in order to do that, you would have to be a, a fairy godmother

Marie! Are you really my fairy godmother?

But of course, my child

Actually, I'm everyone's fairy godmother, but you're the only one

Who's given me charity, generosity, and kindness

Now, I must make all the dreams we joked about come true

But that's so improbable, implausible
