Parading

I went to your kingdom
I was young and understanding
A poor boy, a jester
Counting steps to the castle cascading
Counting steps to the castle cascading

I went to your kingdom
With bells on my laces
I danced for your queen there
With the jewels, and the sadness
We went to the tower
It was white, it was commanding
I bowed to the king
He wore flags of bright orange crusading
He wore flags of bright orange crusading

And out in the farmlands
Where the peasants pick flowers
Listen to the pastor
Sing hymns between the mountains
The knights in their armor
Trade lances debating

They rally the people
Singing "Southland's a comin' invading"
Singing "Southland's a comin' invading"

And all the poets and princes
While you were lying waiting
Chase caviar maidens
Soft and uncovered
Parading

They were soft and uncovered parading
They were soft and uncovered parading
Parading

They were soft and uncovered parading
