lyrics
Not every story known has a happy ending
This one’s the tale of the way that things once had been
So lean in close and hear
The queen stood up and then the king and told how things would be
This plan is what he had in mind
As soon as he knew he was next in line
All that the king could talk about was “Give me an heir my wife”
The jester gave one final show
The queen was so upset to see him go
But as she announced dissatisfaction all the king did was smile
I won’t give up the crown protects me
I won’t give up the crown protects me
I won’t give up the crown protects me
The duke arrived with just one plea for that jaded tyrant king
He says “My people have not even food
They toil all their days for me and you.”
With a wink and a smile the king declared “They should have been born the duke.”
But heaven knows enough to burn me
God I hope that they don’t turn on me.
The masquerade began at dusk
That’s when the king revealed his latest lust
She was a sight for sore eyes and that’s just what her husband thought.
I won’t give up the crown protects me
I won’t give up the crown protects me
I won’t give up, no I won’t
Give up, no I won’t
Give up, no I won’t
Give up, no I won’t give up.
