Tragic Kingdom 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
Theyre unaware whats Behind castle walls
But now its written in stone The king has been overthrown By jesterly fools 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 Weve 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 thats 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
They pay homage to a king King whos buried, buried in their minds
They drip from his eyes
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
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
