No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
"Remain seated, please. Permanecer sentados, por favor"

[Verse 1]
Once was a magical place
Over time it was lost
Price increased the cost
Now the fortune of the kingdom
Is locked up in its dungeon vaults
The castle floor lies in traps
With coiled wired set back
Decoyed by old cheese
Now the drawbridge has been lifted
As the millions, they drop to their knees

[Chorus 1]
They pay homage to a king
Whose dreams are buried in their minds
His tears are frozen stiff
Icicles drip from his eyes

[Verse 2]
The cold wind blows as it snows
On those who fight to get in
On heads that are small
Disillusioned as they enter
They're unaware what's behind castle walls
But now it's written in stone
The king has been overthrown
By jesterly fools
And the power of the people
Shall come to believe they do rule

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
Cornfields of popcorn have yet to spring open

[Verse 3]
Have they lost their heads, or are they just all blind mice?
We've heard all their stories one too many times
Hypnotized by fireflies that glow in the dark
Midgets that disguise themselves as tiny little dwarfs
The parade that's electrical
It serves no real purpose
Just takes up a lot of juice
Just to impress us

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 1]

[Bridge]
Ooh, they drip from his eyes
Into the night
They drip from his eyes
They pay homage to a king
A king who's buried, buried in their minds
They drip from his eyes

[Chorus 2]

[Outro]
Welcome to the tragic kingdom
