"Perfectly Perfect" is the opening song from the Disney's 2007 animated direct-to-video film Cinderella III: A Twist in Time. It was composed and written by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner and performed by several characters from the cast including Cinderella, Anastasia, Fairy Godmother and others.
In the film, Cinderella and Prince Charming sing it while celebrating their first wedding anniversary. At the same time, Anastasia learns about Cinderella's Fairy Godmother and gains possession of her wand to make her own dreams come true.
Lyrics[]
Cinderella:
What a perfectly perfect life
It's a fairy tale come true
I'm a princess and a wife
All because I fit a shoe
When I dreamed of love who'd have guessed I'd end up here
At the end of a perfectly perfect year
Oh, what a wonderfully perfectly perfect year!
Anastasia: Why should we have to do the chores?
Drizella: I would rather rot in jail
Anastasia: Washing dishes and scrubbing floors
Drizella: Oh, that's just great, I broke a nail
Anastasia and Drizella: Cinderella is in the palace, living a life of luxury
And we've not once been invited to a ball
Drizella: Or even tea
Anastasia: Why don't I get a happy ending? Where's the prince who'll marry me?
Anastasia and Drizella: When will this horrible nightmare disappear?
Oh, what a perfectly miserably awful year!
Anastasia:
Somewhere there must be
Someone who'll love me
And show me a world that I never knew
He'll ask for my hand and I'll say "I do"
Oh, wouldn't it be finer than fine
If that perfectly perfect love were mine?
Fairy Godmother: He's a perfectly charming prince
She's a charmingly perfect lass
Jaq: They've lived happily ever since
She fit the slipper
Gus: Made of glass
Fairy Godmother: Take your places everyone, the time is drawing near
To celebrate
Fairy Godmother, Jaq and Gus: A perfectly perfect year
Jaq and Gus: A perfect anniversary party that we planned for you
Fairy Godmother: And I threw in some magic with a bibbidi-bobbidi-boo
Fairy Godmother, Jaq and Gus: On this perfectly perfect day
There is magic in the air
Anastasia: Gee, I wonder if that old lady has a wand that she could spare
Cinderella and Prince Charming: What could ever come between us?
Anastasia: I would gladly volunteer
Fairy Godmother: And as for the future, well, it's perfectly clear
All: It's sure to be another magically
Anastasia: Tragically
All: Perfectly perfect year
Anastasia (spoken):
Perfect!
Trivia[]
- Another sign that this took place before the second film, Drizella and Anastasia mention they haven't been invited to a ball, despite being invited to one in "An Uncommon Romance". However, in the previous two segments, they aren't invited to the Royal Banquet in "Aim to Please", or the carnival in "Tall Tail", which possibly means that only the third segment was after the events of Cinderella III and the other two probably took place before.
