Moonbeams and twilight Sit by the fireside and glow Casting grand shadows All on the meadows below But the old king is quiet Looks into the fire, I think he knows That his bubble has burst, and what's worse Is now it shows His old world is changing But he don't notice at all His kingdom is crumbling But he can't see it and so, oh Some kings just don't care Happy just to stare and stare And bad things will happen That cause old castles to fall He could have done something Inspired a tired old Earth Done something good, done something right With which the people could unite and grow For their old world is changing But they don't notice at all Their kingdoms are crumbling But they can't see it and so, oh Some kings just can't say no They'll take till there's nothing to grow And bad things will happen That cause old castles to fall For its roots are rotten Its old walls and all And bad things will happen That cause old castles Cause old castles Cause old castles to fall Oh
