original broadway cast of into the woods - on the steps of the palace lyrics
[cinderella]
he’s a very smart prince
he’s a prince who prepares
knowing this time i’d run from him
he spread pitch on the stairs
i was caught unawares
and i thought, well, he cares
this is more than just malice
better stop and take stock while you’re standing here stuck
on the steps of the palace
you think, what do you want?
you think, make a decision!
why not stay and be caught?
you think, well it’s a thought
what would be his response?
but then what if he knew who you were
when you know that you’re not what he thinks that he wants?
and then what if you are
what a prince would envision?
although how can you know who you are
till you know what you want, which you don’t
so then which do you pick:
while you’re safe out of sight
and yourself, but where everything’s wrong
or where everything’s right
and you know that you’ll never belong?
and whichever you pick, do it quick
cause you’re starting to stick
to the steps of the palace!
it’s your first big decision
the choice isn’t easy to make
to arrive at a ball is exciting and all
once you’re there, though, it’s scary
and it’s fun to deceive when you know you can leave
but you have to be wary
there’s a lot that’s at stake, but you’ve stalled long enough
cause you’re still standing stuck on the stuff on the steps
better run along home!
and avoid the collision
even though they don’t care, you’ll be better off there
where there’s nothing to choose, so there’s nothing to lose
so you pry up your shoes…
then from out of the blue
and without any guide
you know what your decision is
which is not to decide
you’ll just leave him a clue
for example: a shoe
and then see what he’ll do
now it’s he and not you who is stuck with the shoe
in a stew
in the goo
and you’ve learned something too
something you never knew
on the steps of the palace!
