The Frog Prince Lyrics

An old fairytale told me
The simple heart will be prized again
A toad will be our king
And ugly ogres are heroes

Then you'll shake
Your fist at the sky
"Oh why did I rely
On fashions and small fry?"

All promises broken
Feed your people or lose your throne
And forfeit your whole kingdom
I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone

You were our golden child
But the gentle and the mild
Inherit the earth, while

Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cause now we all know

Soon, someone will put a spell on you
Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
You will lie in a deep sleep
That's when

Your prince's crown
Cracks and falls down
Your castle hollow and cold
You've wandered so far
From the person you are
Let go brother, let go
Cause now we all know

What is the Meaning of The Frog Prince?

Beautiful song about unchanging things in the form of a fairytale. A frog is crowned as a king. The frog is the weak person that no one defends and is at the bottom of society. When he is crowned, things are meant to change. But then he breaks promises and repeats the same mistakes that they all did before. He leaves his kingdom to fend for themselves and he only cares about his selfish wishes, which is what everyone always criticize on politicians and even people that we are with as partners. We want so many things and promise to do them all, and then maybe one day we might realize that we never did them and we failed to ourselves. But realizing is the first step and what leads to making things better again.
