You want to go outside?

Why, Rapunzel

Look at you, as fragile as a flowerStill a little sappling

Just a sprout

You know why we stay up in this tower

I know, but-

That′s right, to keep you safe and sound, dear

Guess I always knew this day was coming

Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest

Soon, but not yet

But-

Shh, trust me pet

Mother knows best

Mother knows best

Listen to your mother

It′s a scary world out there

Mother knows best

One way or another

Something will go wrong, I swear!

Ruffians! Thugs!

Poison ivy! Quicksand!

Cannibals and snakes!

The Plague!

(No!) Yes! (But-)

Also, large bugs!

Men with pointy teeth, and...

Stop!

No more, you'll just upset me

Mother's right here

Mother will protect you

Darling, here′s what I suggest

Skip the drama

Stay with Mama

Mother knows best

Go ahead, get trampled by a rhino

Go ahead, get mugged and left for dead

Me, I′m just your mother and what do I know?

I only bathed, and changed, and nursed you

Go ahead and leave me

I deserve it

Let me die alone here

Be my guest!

When it's too late, you′ll see

Just wait

Mother knows best

Mother knows best

Take it from your mumzie

On your own, you won't survive

Sloppy! Underdressed!

Immature! Clumsy!

Please, they′ll eat you up alive!

Gullible! Naive!

Positively grubby! Ditzy!

And a bit, well, hmm, vague!

Plus, I believe, getting kinda chubby

I'm just saying ′cause I love you

Mother understands

Mother's here to help you

All I have is one request...

Rapunzel?

Yes?

Don't ever ask to leave this tower, again

Yes Mother.

I love you very much dear

I love you more

I love you most

Don′t forget it

You′ll regret it

Mother knows best
