No Doubt
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
They're unaware what's
Behind castle walls But now it's written in stone
The king has been overthrown
By jesterly fools SongtexteAnd 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 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
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Cornfields of popcorn
Have yet to spring open
