Rachel Zegler, John Lithgow & Jenifer Lewis - Step by step

As you know, our status quo is quite unbearable
Half the castle's unrepairable
We're in total disarray
Where we've had such charm and style and grace and elegance
Now we're babysitting elephants
It's completely not okay
Don't you wish that we could gussy up the place again?
Dress in satin silk and lace again
Like we did when times were good
Just imagine entertaining VIPs again
Drinking wine and eating cheese again
Well, what if wе really could? Ha!
It's never gonna happеn
It can
It won't!
It's never gonna happen
It can
It won't
It will
We now have a chance to get back in the dance, but we can't just sit still

We need to step
Step in a new direction
Step towards a new perfection
Step after step until all our problems are gone
And step by step
If we keep stepping forward, step without looking backward, then we can all move on
But wait, what are you proposing?
Lucky us, tonight the princess comes of age at last
Meaning we can set the stage at last for a brand new queen to reign
That's good!
And when she has put the palace once again at ease, we bring back the old amenities, and we'll toast them with champagne I like it
Please, you'll love it
You're right, I think I do
With style and with craft We'll have choreographed a benevolent crew

Let's take that step
Step in the new direction
Fall in a cross direction
Step after step
Until we can pass the baton
And step by step
Until we can pass the baton
And step by step
As we keep stepping upward
No one will think it's awkward
When we have passed the wall

Step one, ease the royals aside
Step two, we announce that they've died
Step three, once the teardrops have dried
The popular daughter steps in
Next step, give the princess a crown
Next step, and a fabulous gown
Next step! Give the princess a crown
Next step! And a fabulous gown
Next step! Watch the girl take the town so easy
The princess agrees
And the dance can begin

The after part won't matter, the spell will be unbound
If not
But it will
Yes, whatever
But still
You'll agree to be crowned
Yes
It's time to

Step, step, step, step
Step in the new direction
Step, step, step, step
Backwards an reconnection
Step, step, step, step
Step after step until all our problems are gone
Step by step
After the celebration
After the coronation
Then we can all rule on
Then we'll all move on
Then we'll at last move on
