Once upon a time
A powerful king beheaded his queen
Her unfaithful deeds dishonoured him
And in grief he decides that all women are the same
He married a virgin every night
Only to execute her in the next morning light
Young Scheherazade
She has taken the pride to be the next bride
She told the king a fairy tale
But she didn’t complete and the night passes by
The king was curious — bout the story end
Instead to kill her — he wanted to see her again
Tell the fairy tale — forty thieves in the dungeon
Tell the fairy tale — Sinbad flew on the roc
Tell the fairy tale — bout the jinn in the lantern
Tell the fairy tale — a thousand nights until dawn
The next night as soon
She finished the tale and began a new one
She didn’t come to an end at all
And the king wants to see her again in his hall
So it went on for a thousand nights
Unto the king reprieved her Scheherazade had to tell for dear life
For a thousand and one night
