Tragic Kingdom

Remain seated, please

Permanecer sentados, por favor

Once was a magical place, over time it was lost

Price increased the cost

Now the fortune of the kingdom

Is locked up in its dungeon vaults

The castle floor lies in traps with coiled wires set back

Decoyed by old cheese

Now the drawbridge has been lifted

As the millions, they drop to their knees

They pay homage to a king

Whose dreams are buried in their minds

His tears are frozen stiff

Icicles drip from his eyes

The cold wind blows as it snows on those who fight to get in

On heads that are small

Disillusioned as they enter (Disillusioned as they enter)

They're unaware what's behind castle walls, walls

But now it's written in stone, the king has been overthrown

By jesterly fools

And the power of the people (And the power of the people)

Shall come to believe they do rule

They pay homage to a king

Whose dreams are buried in their minds

His tears are frozen stiff

Icicles drip from his eyes

Welcome to the tragic kingdom

Cornfields of popcorn have yet to spring open

Have they lost their heads, or are they just all blind mice?

We've heard all their stories one too many times

Hypnotized by fireflies that glow in the dark

Midgets that disguise themselves as tiny little dwarfs

The parade that's electrical

It serves no real purpose

Just takes up a lot of juice

Just to impress us

They pay homage to a king

Whose dreams are buried in their minds

His tears are frozen stiff

Icicles drip from his eyes

Ooh, they drip from his eyes into the night

They drip from his eyes (Tragic kingdom)

They pay homage to a king (Tragic kingdom)

A king who's buried, buried in their minds

They drip from his eyes (Tragic kingdom)

Welcome to the tragic kingdom

Cornfields of popcorn have yet to spring open

(Welcome to the tragic kingdom)

(Welcome to the tragic kingdom)

(Welcome to the tragic kingdom...)
