Tangled

“Rapunzel, Rapunzel with hair so fine,”

That is such a cheesy line

Disney really broke the mold

Creating a twist in the story they told

They made Rapunzel want to leave her home

But scared to go alone

They switched the prince to a thief

That played on Rapunzel’s naïve belief

She wanted to see the lanterns that fly

On her birthday through the sky

He had a dream of his own

To own an island and be all alone

Along the journey is where they both find

Exactly how they’ve been blind

Blind to their actual dreams

Thinking the world is always what it seems

The movie starts out, “This is how I die,”

But when Flynn did, we asked why

Her magic hair was the cure

But he cut it off before healed by her

Mother Gothel died but no one was sad

In fact they might have been glad

But Flynn smiled as he cried

“You were my new dream” and then Ryder died

With her magic hair gone and her power

At the top of her tower

Rapunzel was left hopeless

She sang her song that was proving pointless

 

Despite things looking desperately bleak

Her tears landed on Flinn’s cheek

Bright flowers danced all around

Till he sat up with a small gasping sound

Not the traditional true love’s first kiss

Or happily ever bliss

Or fairytale logic

Instead Disney worked their classic magic
