I'm in the Middle of a Muddle is a deleted song from the 1950 Disney animated film, Cinderella.
Background[]
This song was originally going to be included in the film, but ended up getting deleted from the final version of the film. It was a work song where Cinderella sings about her chores, but due to a possible concern from audiences about Cinderella dealing with her own troubles, it was deleted from the final version. For the final version of the film in "The Work Song", the mice sang about Cinderella's unreasonable work schedule and audiences shared about the caring with the mice.[1]
Lyrics[]
I'm in the middle of a muddle
In the middle of a muddle am I
I wanna have fun, I wanna have fun
But the work is piling high
I'm in the middle of a riddle
In the middle of a riddle, oh my
I'll never get done, I'll never get done
Because I'm only I
It seems my work just never stops
The rooms turn into rooms
Oh, how I wish my feet were mops
And my hands were brooms
I'm in a topsy of a turvy
In a topsy of a turvy, it's true
I wish I were twins, I wish I were twins
I'm in the muddle in the middle of a muddle
And I can't muddle through
Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella (Cinderella)
Cinderella, Cinderella, Cinderella (Cinderella)
(instrumental break)
It seems my work just never stops
The rooms turn into rooms
Oh, how I wish my feet were mops
And my hands were brooms
I'm in a topsy of a turvy
In a topsy of a turvy, it's true
I wish I were twins, I wish I were twins
I'm in the muddle in the middle of a muddle
And I can't muddle through
