A Fairy Tale by Second Hand (Band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mother tells a fairy tale
From Brothers Grimm
Someone knocking at the door
Don't let him in
My mother cooks nice things to eat
And tells tales to go to sleep
Once asleep, I start to sail
To the land of the fairy tale

[Chorus]
Mother tells a fairy tale
About a king who never fails to
End it happily, end it happily
In the fairy tale

[Verse 2]
Father comes home late from work
As hard as nails
His stoney footsteps on the stairs
Ends the fairy tale
But is this such a very sad thing
'Twas a tale about a very bad king
So Mother finally closed the page
Locked my dream world in a cage
[Alt. Chorus]
Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails to (You got to end it)
Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails to (You got to end it)
Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails to (You got to end it)
