Boys, they're handsome and strong
But always the first to tell me I'm wrong
Boys try to tame me, I know
They tell me I'm weird and won't let it go
… No, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again
Cracked door, I always want to let you in
Even after all of the shit, I'm resilient
… 'Cause a princess doesn't cry (no-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh, oh)
Over monsters in the night
Don't waste our precious time
On boys with pretty eyes
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh, oh)
Burning like a fire
You feel it all inside
But wipe your teary eyes
… 'Cause princesses don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, oh
Don't cry
Don't cry, oh
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
'Cause princesses don't cry
… Girls, so pretty and poised and soft to the touch
But God made me rough
Girls, so heavy the crown, they carry it tall
But it's weighing me down
… No, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again
Cracked door, you're only gonna let them in once
And you won't come undone
… 'Cause a princess doesn't cry (no-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh, oh)
Over monsters in the night
Don't waste our precious time
On boys with pretty eyes
A princess doesn't cry (No-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (No-oh, oh)
Burning like a fire
You feel it all inside
But wipe your teary eyes
… 'Cause princesses don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, oh
Don't cry
Don't cry, oh
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
'Cause princesses don't cry
… I'm fine, I won't waste my time
Keep it in a jar, and we'll leave it for the next one
Yeah, I'm fine, I won't waste my time
Keep it in a jar, and we'll leave it for the next one
Yeah, I'm fine, I'm lying on the floor again
… 'Cause a princess doesn't cry (no-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh, oh)
Over monsters in the night
Don't waste our precious time
On boys with pretty eyes
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh)
A princess doesn't cry (no-oh, oh)
Burning like a fire
You feel it all inside
But wipe your teary eyes
… 'Cause princesses don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, oh
Don't cry
Don't cry, oh
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
'Cause princesses don't cry
Don't cry, don't cry, oh
Don't cry
Don't cry, oh
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, oh
'Cause princesses don't cry
