ERIKA:
If I'd like to have my breakfast hot
Madame Carp will make me pay
And I have to fetch the eggs myself
And the barn's a mile away
It's cold and wet and still I get
An omlette on my plate
But in my head I'm back in bed
Snuggled up and sleeping late
PRINCESS 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 a 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
ERIKA:
I'm just like you
PRINCESS ANNELIESE:
You are?
ERIKA:
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
That 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
PRINCESS ANNELIESE:
I wear the gown, without my crown
And dance around my room
BOTH:
And imagine life without the strife of an unfamiliar groom
PRINCESS ANNELIESE & (ERIKA):
I'm just like you (I think that's true)
You're just like me (Yes, I can see)
BOTH:
We take responsibility
PRINCESS ANNELIESE & (ERIKA):
We carry through (We carry through)
BOTH:
Do what we need to do
Yes, I am a girl like you
ERIKA & (PRINCESS ANNELIESE):
I'm just like you (I'm just like you)
You're just like me (You're just like me)
BOTH:
It's something anyone can see
ERIKA & (PRINCESS ANNELIESE):
A heart that beats (A heart that beats)
BOTH:
A voice that speaks the truth
Yes, I am a girl like you!
