Once was a magical place Once was a magical place Era uma vez um lugar mágico Over time it was lost Over time it was lost Com o passar do tempo estava perdido Price increased the cost Price increased the cost Aumentou o preço de custo Now the fortune of the kingdom Now the fortune of the kingdom Agora a fortuna do reino Is locked up in its dungeon vaults Is locked up in its dungeon vaults Estava presa no calabouço The castle floor lies in traps The castle floor lies in traps O chão do castelo se transformou em mentiras e armadilhas With coiled wires set back With coiled wires set back Com jogo telegrafado enrrolado atrás Decoyed by old cheese Now the drawbridge has been lifted Decoyed by old cheese Now the drawbridge has been lifted Atraído por queijo velho Agora a ponte elevadiça foi erguida As the millions As the millions Com os milhões de pessoas do lado de dentro They drop to their knees They drop to their knees Eles ficavam de joelhos They pay homage to a king They pay homage to a king Eles prestavam homenagem a um rei Whose dreams are buried Whose dreams are buried De onde havia sonhos In their minds In their minds Em suas mentes His tears are frozen stiff His tears are frozen stiff As lágrimas dele são como a de um cadáver congelado Icicles drip from his eyes Icicles drip from his eyes Cubos de gelo gotejam de seus olhos The cold wind blows as it snows The cold wind blows as it snows Os sopros do vento são frios como a neve On those who fight to get in On those who fight to get in Nesses que lutam para entrar On heads that are small On heads that are small Em poucas quantidades Disillusioned as they enter Disillusioned as they enter Se desiludiram com o tempo They're unaware what's They're unaware what's Eles estão desavisados Behind castle walls Behind castle walls O que se escreviam atrás de paredes de castelo But now it's written in stone But now it's written in stone Agora é escrito em pedra The king has been overthrown The king has been overthrown O rei esteve em cima de um trono By jesterly fools By jesterly fools Rodeado de bobos da corte And the power of the people And the power of the people E o poder das pessoas Shall come to believe they do rule Shall come to believe they do rule O fizeram acreditar que eles regiam They pay homage to a king They pay homage to a king Eles prestam homenagem a um rei Whose dreams are buried Whose dreams are buried De que havia sonhos In their minds In their minds Nas suas mentes His tears are frozen stiff His tears are frozen stiff As lágrimas dele são como a de um cadáver congelado Icicles drip from his eyes Icicles drip from his eyes Cubos de gelo gotejam de seus olhos Welcome to the tragic kingdom Welcome to the tragic kingdom Bem-vindo ao reino trágico Cornfields of popcorn Cornfields of popcorn Cheios de milho de pipoca Have yet to spring open Have yet to spring open Ainda temos que pular Have they lost their heads Have they lost their heads Eles perderam a cabeça Or are they all blind mice Or are they all blind mice Ou viram os ratos de cortina We've heard all their stories We've heard all their stories Nós ouvimos todas suas histórias One too many times One too many times Muitas vezes Hypnotized by fireflies Hypnotized by fireflies Hipnotizado por vaga-lumes That glow in the dark That glow in the dark Aquele brilho na escuridão Midgets that disguise themselves Midgets that disguise themselves Anões que falam As tiny little dwarfs As tiny little dwarfs E que com o tempo enfezam The parade that's electrical The parade that's electrical A parada elétrica It serves no real purpose It serves no real purpose Não servem para nehum propósito real Just takes up a lot of juice Just takes up a lot of juice Só objetos caros Just to impress us Just to impress us Para nos impressionar Welcome to the tragic kingdom Welcome to the tragic kingdom Bem-vindos ao reino trágico Cornfields of popcorn Cornfields of popcorn Cheios de milho de pipoca Have yet to spring open Have yet to spring open Ainda temoas que sair fora
