Careful My Toe

As the Prince anxiously waited

The stepmother took matters and Florinda's foot

Into her own hands

Careful my toe

Darling I know

What do we do?

It'll have to go

But when you're his bride

You can sit or ride

You'll never need to walk

♪

Minus one toe, Florinda mounted the Prince's horse

Unaware of the blood dripping from the slipper

Lucinda was next

Why won't it fit?

Darling be still

Cut off a bit of the heel and it will

And when you're his wife

You'll have such a life

You'll never need to walk

Minus a heel, Lucinda did her best to swallow the pain

It's a perfect fit, Your Highness
