lyrics

She lives in a fairy tale, somewhat too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell, of a world that she's left behind
It's about the exposure, the lens I told her
The angles are all wrong now, she's tearing wings off of butterflies

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Well go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Ba da baya da ba ba da

So one day he found her crying, coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her, and the rest she can figure out
But it was a trick and the clock struck twelve so make sure
To build your home brick by boring brick
Or the wolf's gonna blow it down

Keep your feet on the ground
When your head's in the clouds

Well go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

You live in a world of magic 'cause your real life is tragic
You live in a world of magic

If it's not real you can't hold it in your hand
Or feel it with your heart
And I won't believe it

But if it's true you can see it with your eyes
Or even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah

Well go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle
Go get your shovel and we'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

Ba da baya da ba ba da, ba dat dat baya dat bay doh
Ba da baya da ba ba da, ba dat dat baya dat bay doh
Ba da baya da ba ba da, ba dat dat baya dat bay doh
