Fairy Tale by Battery Operated Orchestra Lyrics
In the darkest corner
Of the outer spiral arm
Lived a race of monkeys
With a thirst for causing harm
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Giving birth to combustion
To chase away the dark
Plutonium out of Uranus
Frightened by the sparks
We crack your skull wide open
We're drinking in your thoughts
You crack their skulls wide open
And feed them to the dogs
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Time to end
What we've begun
Time to burn down
What you've become
In your widest deserts
We're clawing up the ground
We found an astrolabe
And a skull that's far too round
Bony fingers pointing
To the stars and far beyond
Why can't you realise that
That's where you came from
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Time to end
What we've begun
Time to burn down
What you've become
Time to leave
Your only sun
Time to end
What we've begun
It's just a fairytale
It's just a fairytale
Of the outer spiral arm
Lived a race of monkeys
With a thirst for causing harm
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Giving birth to combustion
To chase away the dark
Plutonium out of Uranus
Frightened by the sparks
We crack your skull wide open
We're drinking in your thoughts
You crack their skulls wide open
And feed them to the dogs
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Time to end
What we've begun
Time to burn down
What you've become
In your widest deserts
We're clawing up the ground
We found an astrolabe
And a skull that's far too round
Bony fingers pointing
To the stars and far beyond
Why can't you realise that
That's where you came from
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
Banging the rocks together!
Frightened of the sparks
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's just a fairy tale
It's time to set sail!
Time to end
What we've begun
Time to burn down
What you've become
Time to leave
Your only sun
Time to end
What we've begun
It's just a fairytale
It's just a fairytale
