The maids that bloom in spring, they say Bloom the fairest of all But the maids that charm the king, they say Had best refuse his call The maids that turn sixteen, they say Turn the head of the king But the maids that go unseen, I say Have something else to sing Daughter, damsel, wife In all seven kingdoms A woman learns it goes “Daughter, damsel, wife” And in all seven kingdoms A woman turns from a Daughter to damsel to wife And for a twist of the knife She could get stuck with the life Of a lady in waiting Waiting to live A lady in waiting A lady debating whether womanhood has more to give Another dress to wear Another cup of tea Another lemon cake Another pregnancy And the scholars pay no mind To a girl who's been defined As a lady in waiting But I won't be waiting For a fate that I'm assigned Maiden, Mother, Crone In the Faith of the Seven A woman prays to the Maiden, Mother, Crone In the Faith of the Seven A girl decays from a Maiden to mother to crone Destiny already known She could be queen on the throne Or a lady in waiting Waiting for more A lady in waiting A lady creating ways to get at least a foot in the door Another line to say Another role to act Another test of wit Another test of tact And she can't make one mistake So she keeps herself opaque One more lady in waiting Well, I won't be waiting For a crown that's mine to take Because the winners take the spoils The winners pull the strings The winners marry royals The winner marry kings Instead of waiting for love Someone's attention Waiting for what? Divine intervention? The gods should know full well No one holds back Margaery Tyrell She's no lady in waiting! I'm no lady in waiting, no! Another age begins Another family thrives Another flower blooms Another queen arrives And the girl she was is gone For a queen is not a pawn Or a lady in waiting The kingdom come Is all that I'm waiting on!
