Tragic Kingdom Lyrics


Remain seated pleaseOnce 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 vaultsThe 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 kneesThey pay homage to a king
Whose dreams are buried in their minds
His tears are frozen stiff
Icicles drip from his eyesThe cold wind blows as it snows
On those who fight to get in
On heads that are small, disillusioned
(Disillusioned)As they enter
(As they enter)
They're unaware what's behind castle walls
But now it's written in stoneThe king has been overthrown by jesterly fools
And the power
(And the power)

Of the people
(Of the people)
Shall come to believe they do ruleThey pay homage to a king
Whose dreams are buried in their minds
His tears are frozen stiff
Icicles drip from his eyesWelcome to the tragic kingdom
Cornfields of popcorn have yet to spring openHave 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 darkMidgets 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 usThey pay homage to a king
Whose dreams are buried in their minds
His tears are frozen stiff
Icicles drip from his eyesOoh, they drip from his eyes into the night
(Tragic kingdom)
They drip from his eyes
(Tragic kingdom)They pay homage to a king
King who's buried, buried in their minds
(Tragic kingdom)
They drip from his eyes
(Tragic kingdom)Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Cornfields of popcorn have yet to spring openWelcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdomWelcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
