the frog prince
An old fairytale told me The simple heart will be prized again A toad will be our king Ugly ogres our heroes Then you'll shake Your fist at the sky "Oh why did I rely On fashions and small fry?" All promises broken Feed your people or lose your throne And forfeit your whole kingdom I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone You were our golden child But the gentle and the mild Inherit the earth, while Your prince's crown Cracks and falls down Your castle hollow and cold You've wandered so far From the person you are Let go brother, let go Cos now we all know Soon, someone will put a spell on you Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know You will lie in a deep sleep That's when Your prince's crown Cracks and falls down Your castle hollow and cold You've wandered so far From the person you are Let go brother, let go Cos now we all know
