[Lyric] Pretty Pretty Girl - Reprise (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
[DIANA] Another lesson learned A girl grows wise I'd say she's finally done With secrets and lies So much is left unsaid Yet she remains discreet The tabloids tell her story But that story's incomplete A clever, clever girl With so little left to lose Can rewrite her own story For her story's hers to choose A clever girl...Learn MorepopDiana Original Broadway Cast[Lyric] Pretty Pretty Girl (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
[DIANA] I know what they both want For me to fade away Obey each new command Do as they say Pose for a photograph Smile for the press Simply be a pretty girl In another pretty dress Too many smiles, too many yeses Too many dreams which Charles depresses He was the one who they'd devour But I won their love And doesn't love give you power?

[ENSEMBLE] Another night with Charles' friends I pray to God that it soon ends! Nights like this, I envy the poor Their parties can't possibly be such a fucking bore We stand and chat, try to look alive While we wait for the prince to arrive His mistress smiles and does her bit I wonder how she puts up with this shit [CHARLES, spoken] I'm...Learn MorepopDiana Original Broadway Cast[Lyric] An Officers Wife (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
[QUEEN ELIZABETH] A long time ago, a princess like you Was young and so scared of all she must do She married a prince, a captain at sea The King sent them away so the princess could be an officer's wife Oh, just an officer's wife...

[DIANA] William, my dear little prize It stops me to look in your eyes My gorgeous heir to the throne Do I dare call you my own To me you're much more than an heir You're simply my heart lying there And can't we forever be This happy new family Happiness, happiness You find a way to face the day When you find happiness [CHARLES] Darling, I'm...Learn MorepopDiana Original Broadway Cast[Lyric] The Dress (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
[PAUL BURRELL] What can a princess do when her prince takes to the air And tells his gobsmacked subjects he's had a love affair? She could moan on her throne, and sob and say "boo-hoo," Or find a frock designed to shock, designed to say "f**k you!" She could try something sly A b***h on wheels in six-inch heels; You'll rock the place in silk and...Learn MorepopDiana Original Broadway Cast[Lyric] As I Love You (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
[DIANA] Another night, another brawl How do you not understand me at all? Don't you ever tire Of this mess?

[Charles, spoken] What if I'm simply not certain? I mean, were you certain when you married? [Elizabeth, sung] He got down on one knee Yes, he did it properly And well, that was it for me But love evolves and bends And men take other friends It doesn't mean devotion ends Love's not what you expect Love rarely is direct Love changes every...Learn MorepopDiana Original Broadway Cast[Lyric] Underestimated (Diana Original Broadway Cast)
