[JAQ]
Every time she'd find a minute
That's the time that they begin it
Cinderelly, Cinderelly
[STEPSISTERS]
Cinderella!
[JAQ]
Cinderelly, Cinderelly
Night and day it's Cinderelly
Make the fire, fix the breakfast
Wash the dishes, do the mopping
[MICE]
And the sweeping and the dusting
They always keep her hopping
[JAQ]
She goes around in circles
Till she's very, very dizzy
Still they holler
[MICE]
Keep a-busy Cinderelly!
[JAQ, spoken]
Yea, keep her busy. You know what? Cinderelly not go to the ball
[MICE, spoken]
What? Not go? What did you say?
[JAQ, spoken]
You'll see. They fix her. Work, work, work. She'll never get her dress done
[GUS, spoken]
Poor Cinderelly
[SUSIE, spoken]
Hey, we can do it!
(sung)
We can do it, we can do it
We can help our Cinderelly
We can make her dress so pretty
There's nothing to it, really
[MICE]
We'll tie a sash around it
Put a ribbon through it
When dancing at the ball
She'll be more beautiful than all
In the lovely dress we'll make for Cinderelly
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry
Gonna help our Cinderelly
Got no time to dilly-dally
We gotta get a-goin'
[GUS]
I'll cut with these scissors!
[JAQ]
And I can do the sewing!
[SUSIE]
Leave the sewing to the women
You go get some trimmin'
[MICE]
And we'll make a lovely dress for Cinderelly!
We'll make a lovely dress for Cinderelly!

[MICE]
A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep
[SUSIE]
Have faith in your dreams and someday
(whistling)
No matter how your heart is grieving
[GUS]
If you keep on believing
[JAQ]
The dream that you wish will come true
(vocalizing)
[SUSIE, spoken]
Okay...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...
[JAQ/GUS]
Whatever you wish for you keep
[MICE, spoken]
Heave ho! Heave ho!
(vocalizing)
[SUSIE]
The dream that you wish will come true
