A Fairy Tale Songtext
von Second Hand

Mother tells a fairy tale
From Brothers Grimm
Someone knocking at the door
Don′t let him in

My mother cooks nice things to eat
And tells tales to go to sleep
Once asleep I start to sail
To the land of the fairy tale

Mother tells a fairy tale
About a king who never fails
To end it happily
End it happily
End the fairy tale


Father comes home late from work
As hard as nails
His stony footsteps up the stairs
Ends the fairy tale

But is this such a very sad thing?
'Twas a tale about a very bad king
So mother finally closed the page
Locked my dream world in a cage

Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails (You got to end it)
Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails (You got to end it)
Mother tells a fairy tale (You got to end it)
About a king who never fails (You got to end it)
