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 (disillusioned) as they enter (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 And the power (and the power) of the people (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 They pay homage to a king Whose dreams are buried in their minds His tears are frozen stiff Icicles drip from his eyes Oh they drip from his eyes into an eye They drip from his eyes They pay homage to a king The king who's buried, buried in their minds They drip from his eyes Welcome to the tragic kingdom Cornfields of popcorn Have yet to spring open
