Lyrics: A Dustland Fairytale

Dustland fairytale begining
Just another white trash county kiss
Sixty one long brown hair and foolish eyes
He looked just like you'd want him to some
Kind of slick chrome American prince
A blue jean serenade
Moon river what you do to me
But I don't believe you

Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
He's getting ready for the show down
I saw the minute that I turned away
I got my money on a pawn tonight

Change came in disguise of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She said she always knew he'd come around
And the decades disappear like sinking
Ships but we persevere god gives us hope
But we still fear
What we don't know
The mind is poison
Castles in the sky sit stranded vandalized
The draw bridge is closing

Saw Cinderella in a party dress
But she was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
he's getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending when they turned the page
I threw my money and I ran away
Straight to the Valley of the great divide

And where the dreams are high
And where the wind dont blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky wont snow
Out here the bird don't sing
Out here the field don't grow
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the bell don't ring
Out here the good girls die

Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
It's such a bitter form of refuge
Ahh don't you know the kingdoms under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the cadence of a young man's eyes
And where the dreams are high
