Child Of The Novelty

From a land where Dragons stood
A young boy dared what no man could
Born of fire, and ice and wood, he came here full of
life
Well he loved and laughed and floated past
the echoes of a velvet mind, that whispered fairy
tales untold
that kissed his mind, carressed his soul
Well times they changed and things rearranged
and a young man stood alone
But he decided to keep those echoes goin'
and ascended the mighty throne
He was a child of a novelty and he took 'em by
surprise
he made them feel that he was real
he worked magic, magic..magic, before their eyes
As time went on, they said he'd done
what no man had done before
But he claimed that he was a child of a novelty
and nothin' more
Well, he tried to cry out how he felt
and they answered "It's a lie!"
But by this time this novel child had squeezed his
soul bone dry
He was a child of a novelty and he took them by
surprise
he made them feel that he was real
He worked magic, magic..magic
ah, he worked magic, magic..magic
ah, sweet magic, magic...magic before their eyes
