This is a fairytale
A fairy's flown away
This would be story time
If time was left for today
So instead we sit in silence
And silently we play
Songs that nobody will hear
Of words we'd never say
This isn't what you think
But it's close to what you've heard
This is important now
So listen closely to every word
Or the meaning behind each one
Might get lost between the sounds
And there's nobody to translate
You're the only one around
Warnings crafted for your own good
Magic stories from your childhood
Written off by whispered rumors
Recycled in tasteless humor
Narrated by one you'd never
Think you'd forget to remember
Full of events you wouldn't
Ever believe and so you shouldn't
This is a memory
Of the times that never were
It'll be short and sweet
You won't have to listen much longer
Hopefully this will linger
In your mind for years to come
So the lesson will stay with you
When the story's dead and done
Warnings crafted for your own good
Magic stories from your childhood
Written off by whispered rumors
Recycled in tasteless humor
Narrated by one you'd never
Think you'd forget to remember
Full of events you wouldn't
Ever believe and so you shouldn't
Be too careful
It's all nonsense after all
How could tired stories hope
To catch you if you fall
You never gave a second thought
To them once you were grown
But who is there to guide you
Now you're standing on your own
Warnings crafted for your own good
Magic stories from your childhood
Written off by whispered rumors
Recycled in tasteless humor
Narrated by one you'd never
Think you'd forget to remember
Full of events you wouldn't
Ever believe and so you shouldn't
