Candlemass
Dancing in the Temple (Of the Mad Queen Bee)
[Verse 1]
Dancing in the temple of the Mad Queen Bee
Deep in the cinnamon forest
She offers me crickets, she offers me tea
In the court of her enchanted palace

[Chorus]
Asks me if I want to stay
Sing with the trolls and the fays
Swim in her emerald lake
I'm dancing in the temple of the Mad Queen Bee

[Verse 2]
The jesters are weeping, the cyclops are gone
She sits on a throne made of bees
She's weaving at night, she's knits all day long
Her children, made out of fleas

[Chorus]
And there, in a state of trance
She sees me and gives me her hand
I see the ogre polish the rainbow
As I'm dancing in the temple of the Mad Queen Bee

[Bridge]
A sip from the well, I'm locked in a spell
Trapped in a grim fairy tale
Endless the fun, I wish I had a gun
But I'm dancing forever from room to room
[Verse 3]
We dance the fandango, we do menuet
Waltz in her shadow palais
Listen to the strings of the goblin quartet
See the magic ballet

[Chorus]
Asked me if I want to stay
Sing with the trolls and the fays
Swim in her emerald lake
I'm dancing in the temple of the Mad Queen Bee

[Outro]
A sip from the well, I'm locked in a spell
Trapped in a grim fairy tale
Endless the fun, I wish I had a gun
I'm dancing in the temple of the Mad Queen Bee
