I danced for the king And those of the court To entertain the masses, no matter the rapport I laughed off the laughs I laughed off the lies Told myself they'll never see you cry I danced on the tables I danced on the chairs I danced in great halls I danced during grand affairs Thought I was loved but it was a lie A fool was all I was in their eyes I wanted to be loved so I sold them all lies But the fool was all I was in their eyes

The Fool
I danced for the king And those of the court To entertain the masses, no matter the rapport I laughed off the laughs I laughed off the lies Told myself they'll never see you cry I danced on the tables I danced on the chairs I danced in great halls I danced during grand affairs Thought I was loved but it was a lie A fool was all I was in their eyes I wanted to be loved so I sold them all lies But the fool was all I was in their eyes
