Once upon a time
in a kingdom far away
There lived a lovely princess
with a smile as bright as day

The princess was to marry
a young prince across the sea.
so they could live in love
and be happy as could be

But one day the Prince's father
came and told him the bad news.
He was taking over both their kingdoms
and he wanted both their shoes.

The princess clung unto her prince
and watched the army ride away
she knew her former kingdom would
be gone by the end of the day

And so she cried and watched the sun
as it sank way down low
and by sunset her kingdom was
all in rubble so

She went and locked herself away
and her prince did it too
they went into the dungeon
and started their lives anew

And there was where the couple died
Oh I forgot to say.
There is no happy ending here
I thought you knew that anyway.
