Lyrics

[00:00.85] Tragic Kingdom
[00:23.36] Once was a magical place
[00:24.86] Over time it was lost
[00:26.81] Price increased the cost
[00:28.76] Now the fortune of the kingdom
[00:31.90] Is locked up in its dungeon vaults
[00:35.91] The castle floor lies in traps
[00:37.65] With coiled wires set back
[00:39.42] Decoyed by old cheese
[00:41.56] Now the drawbridge has been lifted
[00:44.44] As the millions
[00:45.75] They drop to their knees
[00:47.89]
[00:48.45] They pay homage to a king
[00:50.40] Whose dreams are buried
[00:52.23] In their minds
[00:54.85] His tears are frozen stiff
[00:56.61] Icicles drip from his eyes
[00:59.58]
[01:01.26] The cold wind blows as it snows
[01:02.76] On those who fight to get in
[01:04.51] On heads that are small
[01:06.88] Disillusioned
[01:07.63]
[01:08.32] As they enter
[01:09.13]
[01:09.82] Theyre unaware whats
[01:11.20] Behind castle walls
[01:12.57]
[01:13.28] But now its written in stone
[01:15.34] The king has been overthrown
[01:17.41] By jesterly fools
[01:19.43] And the power
[01:20.92] Of the people
[01:22.50] Shall come to believe they do rule
[01:25.18]
[01:26.45] They pay homage to a king
[01:28.13] Whose dreams are buried
[01:30.20] In their minds
[01:31.34]
[01:32.72] His tears are frozen stiff
[01:34.29] Icicles drip from his eyes
[01:37.37]
[01:38.73] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[01:42.92]
[01:43.61] Cornfields of popcorn
[01:45.67] Have yet to spring open
[01:47.60]
[02:07.61] Have they lost their heads
[02:08.98] Or are they just all blind mice
[02:11.54] Weve heard all their stories
[02:13.87] One too many times
[02:15.82]
[02:16.57] Hypnotized by fireflies
[02:18.83] That glow in the dark
[02:20.39]
[02:21.08] Midgets that disguise themselves
[02:23.46] As tiny little dwarfs
[02:25.79] The parade thats electrical
[02:27.23]
[02:28.11] It serves no real purpose
[02:30.56] Just takes up a lot of juice
[02:33.06] Just to impress us
[02:34.99]
[03:05.88] They pay homage to a king
[03:07.62] Whose dreams are buried
[03:09.49] In their minds
[03:10.87]
[03:12.18] His tears are frozen stiff
[03:13.92] Icicles drip from his eyes
[03:16.81]
[03:18.31] Ooh they drip from his eyes into the night
[03:24.77]
[03:26.09] They drip from his eyes
[03:27.96]
[03:31.23] They pay homage to a king
[03:33.12] King whos buried, buried in their minds
[03:37.31]
[03:38.69] They drip from his eyes
[03:40.49]
[03:44.80] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[03:51.21]
[03:54.28] Cornfields of popcorn
[03:57.54] Have yet to spring open
[04:00.82]
[04:04.21] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:10.60]
[04:13.18] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:20.68]
[04:22.55] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:29.36]
[04:31.12] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:37.56]
[04:38.81] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:45.18]
[04:46.61] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:52.51]
[04:54.07] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
[04:59.49]
[05:01.25] Welcome to the tragic kingdom
