It's midnight Cinderella
But don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter, Peter the Pumpkin Eater
And the party has just begun

I guess you're prince charming
Wasn't after all
'Cause he sure seemed different right after the ball
I guess that more than horses
Are turnin' into rats
And by the way he's walkin'
I can guess where your slippers at

It's midnight Cinderella
Time that you should know
There's gonna be some changes in the way this story goes
It's midnight Cinderella
But don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter, Peter the pumpkin eater
And the party has just begun

I'm gonna help you get over
Bein' under that spell
You're gonna learn to love midnight
Inside this pumpkin shell
I gotta few new magic tricks
Your Godmother can't do
And I'll show you want it means to bip, bip, bip, bip, boppity, boo hoo

It's midnight Cinderella
Time that you should know
There's gonna be some changes in the way this story goes
It's midnight Cinderella
But don't you worry none
'Cause I'm Peter, Peter the pumpkin eater
And the party has just begun
