Tragic Kingdom Lyrics - Gwen Stefani

Once was a magical place 

Over time it was lost 

Price increased the cost 

Now the fortune of the kingdom 

Is locked up in it's dungeon vaults 

The castle floor ties in traps 

With coiled wires set back 

Decoyed by the old cheese 

Now the drawbridge has been lifted 

As the millions 

They drop to their knees

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

They pay homage to a king 

Whose dreams are burried 

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 

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 

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
