I can be a princess

I'll ditch the crown for a baseball cap

I'll swap the dress for a pair of overalls

Toss the cloak for a big ol' hoodie

I guess the horse can stay... as long as I ride bareback

I'll try and curtsy, but I'll probably fall down

I still rock as a princess, though; I rule the town

I give orders like nobody's business

Take ninja classes on the sly

And when it's most important, I have a very soft side

I bring fragrance to the kingdom

But I still can kick some butt

So y'all better watch y'all steps, cuz this princess got some gut
