Fairy Godmother: 
Cinderella?

Cinderella: 
Who are you?

Fairy Godmother: 
I'm your fairy godmother

Cinderella: 
How beautiful you are

Fairy Godmother: 
I'm made of all of your most beautiful hopes and dreams and wishes

Cinderella: 
Oh, Fairy godmother, I have only one wish just now.... to go to the ball.... and I know it is impossible

Fairy Godmother: 
Impossible? 
Bah, what's a fairy godmother for?

Cinderella: 
To make my wish come true?

Fairy Godmother: 
If you wish it hard enough 
Now let me see you'll need a coach, and four horses, and a coachman, and a groom

Cinderella: 
Is it possible to get those things by wishing for them?

Fairy Godmother: 
Well, the sensible people of this world will say
Fol-de-rol and fiddle dee dee and fiddley faddley foddle all the wishes in the world are poppy cock and twoddle.

Cinderella: 
Aren't they?

Fairy Godmother: 
Not always 
The sensible people will also say
Fol-de-rol and fiddle dee dee and fiddley faddley foodle all the dreamers in the world are dizzy in the noodle

Cinderella: 
And aren't they?

Fairy Godmother: 
Not always, especially when there is someone who loves you to help you 
Now, to work 
For a coach I believe I see a pumpkin over there -- that'll do very nicely

Cinderella: 
A pumpkin?

Fairy Godmother: 
I see you have four pet mice in a cage .. they'll do very nicely for the horses

Cinderella: 
Mice? 
For horses?

Fairy Godmother: 
Mm hmm.. 
Now let me see, something's peering at us from under that shrub 
Oh yes, it's a fine fat rat with whiskers, and his brother they'll do very nicely for the coachman and the groom

Cinderella: 
Oh, dear Fairy Godmother it all seems so impossible!!

Fairy Godmother: 
Impossible for a plain yellow pumpkin to become a golden carriage 
Impossible for a plain country bumpkin and a prince to join in marriage 
And four white mice will never be four white hourses 
Such fol-de-rol and fiddle dee dee of courses 
Impossible! 
But the world is full of zanies and fools who don't believe in sensible rules and won't believe what sensible people say .. 
And because these daft and dewey eyed dopes keep building up impossible hopes impossible things are happening every day!

Cinderella: 
Impossible!

Fairy Godmother:
Impossible!

Cinderella: 
Impossible!

Fairy Godmother: 
Impossible!

Cinderella: 
And remember how very very hard I am wishing!

Fairy Godmother: 
Impossible for a plain yellow pumpkin to become a golden carriage.. 
Impossible for a plain country bumpkin and a prince to join in marriage 
And four white mice will never be four white horses..

Cinderella: 
They will!!

Fairy Godmother: 
Such fol-de rol and fiddle dee dee of courses Impossible!

Cinderella: 
But the world is full of zanies and fools who don't believe in sensible rules and won't believe what sensible people say

Both: 
And because these daft and dewey eyed dopes keep building up impossible hopes impossible things are happening every day

Fairy Godmother: 
Look!

Cinderella: 
Oh, oh, it is a golden coach, and four white horses and a coachman and a groom

Fairy Godmother: 
You are going to the ball

Cinderella: 
Oh, oh my clothes

Fairy Godmother: 
Oh dear of course how thoughtless of me 
There!!

Cinderella: 
Oh Fairy Godmother how beautiful!! 
I am dressed like a princess

Fairy Godmother: 
And here are your slippers

Cinderella: 
They're made of glass

Fairy Godmother: 
Put them on

Cinderella: 
They fit perfectly!

Fairy Godmother: 
Now! 
You are ready for the ball
But there is one thing you must remember 
You must leave before the stroke of midnight, for the magic will last no longer

Cinderella:  
I will remember 
Oh fairy godmother how wonderful it all is!!

Cinderella: 
It's possible for a plain yellow pumpkin to become a golden carriage 
It's possible for a plain country bumpkin and a prince to join in marriage

Fairy Godmother: 
And four white mice are easily turned to horses 
Such fal de rah and fiddle dee dee of courses 
Quite possible!

Both: 
It's possible!

Cinderella: 
For the world is full of zanies and fools who don't believe in sensible rules and won't believe what sensible people say
