Armor & Lipstick

[Verse 1 - Playful and confident] Woke up this morning, put my armor on Polished every plate until it shone Braided back my hair with ribbons made of gold Just because I'm fierce doesn't mean I can't be bold Strapped my sword across my back, adjusted my tiara Fighting dragons in my heels? Yeah, I'm that kind of era! They said "choose your weapon," I said "honey, all of them" A knight in shining armor with some lipstick and a gem! [Pre-Chorus - Building excitement] I can slay and I can sway I can fight and look this good A warrior can be anything And that's just understood! [Chorus - Big and anthemic] I wear armor and lipstick! Got my sword and got my sparkle! I'm a warrior princess, watch me work it! Saving kingdoms looking perfect! Armor and lipstick! Crown and cape, I'm feeling magic! On adventures, always fabulous Fighting evil, looking marvelous—I've got it! [Verse 2 - More adventurous] Rode into the battle on my trusty steed today Cape was flowing in the wind in the most dramatic way Defeated all the villains, didn't break a single nail Because when you're this skilled, honey, you just never fail! They see the flowers on my shield and wonder what I'll do Until I show them all the magic that I'm capable of too See, being graceful and being bold aren't opposites at all I can wear a ballgown and still answer honor's call! [Pre-Chorus - Even stronger] I can charge into the fray While my hair stays picture-perfect Being deadly and delightful? That's just worth it! [Chorus - Full power] I wear armor and lipstick! Got my sword and got my sparkle! I'm a warrior princess, watch me work it! Saving kingdoms looking perfect! Armor and lipstick! Crown and cape, I'm feeling magic! On adventures, always fabulous Fighting evil, looking marvelous—I've got it! [Bridge - Playful spoken/sung] (Music breaks down to just synth pads) Now listen up, let me paint the scene You can be a lady and a knight Love the color pink And still be ready for a fight (Building back up) Wear your flowing dresses Braid flowers in your hair Paint your battle armor Any color that you dare! (Drums march back in) 'Cause power comes in every package! Strength comes dressed in any style! And if you want to slay a monster In your heels and with a smile— (Pause) DO IT! ✨ [Dance Break - Instrumental] (Sparkling synth solo with sword-fighting sound effects) (Marching drums) (Triumphant "Hey! Ha! Hey!") (Magic spell sound effects) [Final Chorus - Most triumphant] I wear armor and lipstick! Got my sword and got my sparkle! I'm a warrior princess, watch me work it! Saving kingdoms looking perfect! Armor and lipstick! Crown and cape, I'm feeling magic! On adventures, always fabulous Fighting evil, looking marvelous— (Extended ending) I'm a knight in shining armor with my makeup looking right! I can rescue the whole kingdom and still make it home by night! Underestimate this princess? That might be a mistake! 'Cause I'm wearing armor and lipstick— For goodness' sake!
