[00:19.418]Ever since I was a girl my own mother vowed
[00:21.918]I must find the way to power through a noble brow
[00:24.911]I married once for love then my senses came
[00:27.912]I must marry for the stature of my husband's name
[00:30.661]Onto marriage number two
[00:31.661]I knew what I had to do
[00:33.491]and my poor husband fell ill in a year or two
[00:36.238]solved problem number one,now to problem number two
[00:39.226]His doe-eyed littlle girl with gentle point of view
[00:41.976]Would I ship her off to school?
[00:43.233]No!I told her if she stayed that she'd have to earn her keep
[00:45.978]and so she became the maid!
[00:47.491]She was lazy!
[00:48.227]She was Crazy!
[00:48.991]She was talking to the mice!
[00:50.241]She was hopelessly naive,so she had to pay the price.
[00:53.232]I moved her to the attic out of sight and out of mind.
[00:55.983]I could have thrown her out,but I'm benevolent and kind.
[00:59.183]Mother,your heart's too big for you!
[01:04.675]I knew what I had to do
[01:09.174]After all,difficult children will take advantage of your good nature.
[01:13.937]So you lock them up
[01:15.680]Throw away the key!
[01:17.428]There's one on every family tree
[01:20.175]Ungrateful!
[01:20.938]Hateful!
[01:21.675]Vile too!The things she put you through!
[01:25.925]Break their spirit so they obey!
[01:28.680]Now they'll do anything you say
[01:31.428]Maybe you'd call it cruel but
[01:34.423]others would call it love
[01:36.425]Tough Love!
[01:37.689]I ask you,is it a crime to strive for perfection in all things?
[01:42.181]Oh,no,they're so cute when they're little but then they grow up and just…
[01:46.424]ruined everything!
[01:48.438]I never wanted children
[01:49.925]life was better on my own
[01:51.176]all the screaming,nagging chilled me to the bone!
[01:54.173]But then one day I came across a flower growing free
[01:57.121]it's magic kept me young,so i kept it all for me!
[01:59.877]But someone dug it up now a baby held the power
[02:02.622]so I "borrowed"her and locked her up and hid her in a tower!
[02:05.377]Years went by,OH!
[02:07.120]The sacrifice and against my better judgment,I fed her once or twice.
[02:11.122]Teenagers now I know I wild eat their young
[02:13.878]But that's messy
[02:14.871]manipulation's easily more fun
[02:16.634]A little guilt,a lot of force,of course you have to lie
[02:19.870]remind them without you,they'd shrivel up and die!
[02:22.383]They only have themselves to blame!
[02:28.121]If you'd been there, you'd do the same
[02:33.370]So work them hard'til they fall in line
[02:36.622]There's one way and it's only mine
[02:39.371]Children are lazy
[02:40.876]Spoiled too
[02:42.131]But we know what to do!
[02:44.871]Govern them with a heart of stone
[02:47.871]Lock them up so they're all alone
[02:50.620]Maybe you'd call it cruel but,
[02:53.380]others would call it love,tough love!
[02:56.883]Ugh!Her own tower with a water view
[02:59.621]and she runs away the first chance she gets
[03:02.121]These wretched brats think the world owes them something
[03:05.871]But it doesn't
[03:07.376]Far and wide I rule the kingdom with a heavy hand
[03:10.128]but there was more I hand in mind a greater plan
[03:13.130]I never cared to share,so The King would have to fall
[03:16.120]But his child blocked the way to me and "Fairest of them all"
[03:18.831]She was chubby.She was dumb
[03:20.332]and grotesquely optimistic
[03:21.595]She needed structure in her life!She wasn't realistic
[03:24.331]I gave her chores and took away the things that she'd enjoy
[03:27.331]but then I caught her singing songs with birds and then a boy!
[03:30.345]Love?!Was I just sit by and wait?!
[03:33.541]for her to take my crown? NO!
[03:34.539]she had sealed her fate!
[03:35.789]She had to go,and so she did and you know what they say
[03:38.535]"An apple once a day keeps your enemies away"
[03:41.287]Don't be fooled by their tender smile!
[03:47.032]give an inch and they'll run a mile!
[03:55.537]Our idea of a happy home
[03:58.278]Is one where we live all alone!
[04:01.279]Dark,Depressing,Desolate!
[04:04.026]Now let's all drink to that!
[04:07.026]call us "wicked" and call us "mean"
[04:09.776]"Cruel" and everything in between
[04:12.526]You could say it's unjust
[04:15.276]Turning their dreams to dust
[04:18.221]This is what we call love
[04:20.971]Tough Love!
