Lyrics[]
When someone new enrolls here
at good old Royal Prep
They're at that great beginning
They're taking that first step.
Your lessons will commence here
once you pass through this door.
So why not come and join us
and see what lies in store?
You'll learn the art of manners
of royal protocol.
And when to bow and curtsy
for functions big and small.
You'll read books of fact and fiction
of poetry and prose.
You'll learn to give a royal speech
while perfectly composed.
At Royal Prep, step by step
You'll gain wisdom and pep
So heed the call, come be all you can be.
Every task, every test. Just give it your best.
And we'll do the rest, you'll see.
And don't forget our motto, to which you'll be true.
Rule over others as you'd have them rule over you.
You're taking your first step at Royal Prep.
We'll explore enchanted objects
each creature, every charm.
So spells of evil magic
will never do you harm.
In arts and crafts, you'll draw and paint or maybe work with wood.
You'll learn to fence, as well as dance for footwork, both are good.
At Royal Prep, step by step
You'll gain wisdom and pep
So heed the call, come be all you can be
Every task, every test, just give it your best.
And we'll do the rest, you'll see.
And don't forget our motto, to which you'll be true.
Rule over others as you'd have them rule over you.
We're royal all the way
At good old R.P.A.
It's step by step with wisdom, grace, and pep
At Royal Prep!
Forever Royal version[]
At Royal Prep, step by step, we gained wisdom and pep
Heeded the call, and were all we could be
Every task, every test, we gave it our best
And they did the rest, you'll see
We won't forget our motto, to which we'll be true
Rule over others as you'd have them rule over you
We're royal all the way
At good old R.P.A.
It's step by step with wisdom, grace, and pep
At Royal Prep!
