Once Upon A Time Songtext
von LeRoy Bell

Once upon a time
There lived a crooked man
Behind a crooked house
And everywhere he went
People turned around
They didn′t understand
He's a little bit angry
He′s a little bit sad
He's a little bit lonely
He's a little bit mad

A long time ago
He had everything
Everything was his
But life can be so cruel
Everything he had
Just up and slipped away


Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain
Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain
Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain

Once upon a time
People used to smile
Everywhere he went
His life was oh so blessed
Always on the up side
Never looking down

Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain
Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain
Nobody wants to know his name
Nobody wants to feel his pain

Once when he was young
He had it all
It all made sense
Then one day it
All came crashing down
All around him


Sometimes he feels like he′s in a dream
He′s not alone anymore
Sometimes he hears things he wants to say
It's all just in his head

Once when he was young
He had it all
It all made sense
Then one day it
All came crashing down
All around him

Once upon a time
There lived a crooked man
Behind a crooked house
And everywhere he went
People used to stare
They didn′t understand
