Lyrics
Storybook Romance
by Joel Mabus
Our story book romance
Could take a page from Hans
Christian Anderson or maybe Brothers Grimm
No writer out in Hollywood
Could dream up something half as good
As Charming Prince for her
Or Beauty Sleeping next to him
But our palace is a castle made of sand
And something’s not so grand
In our never never land
There’s something in this story I don’t like
Am I that little Dutch Boy with his finger in the dike?
I only came to play -- Beside the Zuider Zee
And now it seems disaster’s bound to strike
There’s something in this story I don’t like
There’s something in this tale that’s awfully wrong
Am I the fighter pilot here to bring down your King Kong
I circle central park -- Hunting monsters in the dark
Why can’t your monkeys stay where they belong
There’s something in this tale that’s awfully wrong
Our fairy tale affair was happy once upon a time
But Jack & Jill fell down that hill too steep for them to climb
There’s something in this ending I don’t buy
You’re off to see the wizard with a rainbow in your eye
Believe it if you can -- but your wizard’s just a man
And my balloon is ready set to fly
So step off and find your own way
Happily ever after someday
But now its time to say goodbye
