This Day Aria, or Cadence Aria,^[1] is a song that is featured in the episode A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2. It is sung by both Princess Cadance and changeling Queen Chrysalis. Later in the episode, Queen Chrysalis sings a reprise of the song, when she thinks she has won. Of note, an Aria is a song sung by one singer, which given Chrysalis is disguised as Cadance (and sharing a voice actress) makes this true in a fashion.

This song is BMI Work #14907321.

LyricsEdit

[Queen Chrysalis]

This day is going to be perfect

The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small

Everypony will gather 'round

Say I look lovely in my gown

What they don't know is that I have fooled them all!

[Princess Cadance]

This day was going to be perfect

The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small

But instead of having cake

With all my friends to celebrate

My wedding bells, they may not ring for me at all…

[Queen Chrysalis]

I could care less about the dress

I won't partake in any cake

Vows, well I'll be lying when I say

That through any kind of weather

I'll want us to be together

The truth is I don't care for him at all

No I do not love the groom

In my heart there is no room

But I still want him to be all mine

[Princess Cadance]

Must escape before it's too late

Find a way to save the day

Hope, I'll be lying if I say

"I don't fear that I may lose him

To one who wants to use him

Not care for, love, and cherish him each day"

For I oh so love the groom

All my thoughts he does consume

Oh, Shining Armor, I'll be there very soon

[Queen Chrysalis]

Finally the moment has arrived

For me to be one lucky bride

[Princess Cadance]

Oh, the wedding we won't make

He'll end up marrying a fake

Shining Armor will be…

[Queen Chrysalis]: …mine, all mine. [evil laugh]

RepriseEdit

[Queen Chrysalis]

This day has been just perfect

The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small

Everypony I'll soon control

Every stallion, mare, and foal

Who says a girl can't really have it all? [evil laugh]
