An Electrified Fairy Tale) This is an electrified fairy tale. If you've never heard of an electrified Once upon a time [not long ago] in a land not far from here, there was a place fairy tale, just picture little fairies with wee tiny electric guitars. called Harmony. Everyone in Harmony was happy and this "joie devivre" was guarded by their invisible patron, the muse Singring. But jealous forces, and spirit, imprisoning it in [an instrument of glass, locking it in] a chest with there are always jealous forces in such tales, have conspired to capture the four keys, and casting the keys to the four corners of the earth so that only four particularly brave and talented individuals might retrieve them. It is here that our story begins. There's a rumor I heard that's going 'round town Someone's captured Singring, Singring Down to the old town square Come hear the news, come hurry on down See it in his face, tell by his expression The announcer wipes at his eyes, he's trying to hide The secret knowledge that claws to escape as he cried Day of infamy, someone's captur Now what shall we do, what shall we do now? And if you take a look around, Harmony is dying Day of tragedy, someone's captured Singring Someone trapped the spirit in a glass guitar And if you listen with your heart, you can hear it crying Free me from my crystal prison in this glass guitar There's a rumor I heard that's going around Come hear the summons, hurry on down Someone's saving Singring, Singring Down to the village green Brave adventurers, warriors, and free men And the spokesman speaks for us all, together we call Conquer self and so in the end save us all Conquer earth and wind, conquer fire and water Brave adventurers, come and save us all And if you fail to win the keys, Harmony is dying Trapped away forever in a glass guitar And if you listen with your heart, you can hear it crying Free me from my crystal prison in this glass guitar Having gathered on the green, the brave adventurers of the land march off in search of the keys. Their quest leads them first to the river's edge. Lead me to the water Pass me my flagon of wine I said show me to the water I go down to the river and bravely the rapids I row Quick before I change my mind Over the falls to the bottomless pool and it's down to the bottom I go in search of the first key. Only one has the courage to dive into the river and brave the bottomless pool Let the four winds blow icy breath before me Storms will never keep me from the glass guitar 'Til I find the key that leads me to the glass guitar Hurricanes may scream, I will never feel it Only one has the courage to wander the desert [alone] and brave the eternal winds in search of the second key Flames can not catch me Blazes never faze me Fire can never burn me My sword is tempered, my loins are girded in steel Barefoot I walk hot coals for a mile Make my way to the heart of the forest of flames And if I do my best and don't stop to rest I may pass the test and capture the key that opens the chest Only one has the courage to make his way into the forest of flames and br the fire I will climb the face of the highest mountain Whilst Singring calls crying from the glass guitar Steady will I struggle onward to the glass guitar Though the earth may shake let the planet tremble Only one has the courage to climb to the top of the highest mountain in search of the fourth key. Having scaled the mountain and finding no key, the climber begins chopping madly at the ground with his pickax, causing the mountain to split in two, revealing the last key. Now in possession of all four keys, the brave adventurers march triumphantly into the valley of silence to open the chest, smash the glass guitar, and free the spirit of Harmony
