Rapunzel, Rapunzel! Tell me about your daily routine! Disney's take on the classic fairy tale may deviate largely from the original story, but the humble beginnings of a long-locked girl trapped in a tower are very much the same. And if you've ever wondered what she gets up to all day up there, you're in the right place. So let down your hair and enjoy this catchy Disney tune, as you learn some golden vocabulary for mundane to more extravagant hobbies.

Seven o'clock in the morning, daily routine begins again

Now it's time to clean until everything completely tidy

Polish, wax, wipe, buff, wash

But that doesn't take long until seven fifteen

Then I read a book or maybe even three

I paint a new picture, that's just on the side

I play guitar, knit, then cooking is up next

I wonder, when will my life begin?

Then it's time for a puzzle, darts and baking

Scare Pascal, a bit of ballet and chess

Pottery and ventriloquism then making candles

Stretch, brush stroke, up the rope, sew a dress

Then I'll read all the books once more

there's not much space here left to paint a new picture

and then I'll comb and comb, I comb and comb my hair

How much longer am I going to be in this place?

I wonder just when, yeah just when, yeah just when, yeah just when?

When will my life begin?

Yeah tomorrow night, then it's time

They're gonna light up on my birthday real bright
