( Verse 1 )
Once upon a time
There was a King and Queen
Living behind knights
Far from forest green
Forget the story
Cause I'm 'bout to begin
( RAP )
What? Where? Why?
No one ever tried
To question
Clear something
Blurred in our minds
Who? How? When?
Out of the lion's den
No one tried to be friends
With one who pretends
And if we find out
Will you do the same
We can't answer that
Until it came to end
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
Magic, tales
Gardens filled with thorns
Dragon's tail
Siren's sail
I have been cursed
Through wild air
Saw the Vanity Fair
But I really don't care
Then met a huge bear
With spear on hairs
I run, tried to escape
It's not a great choice
Still stand up with poise
Breathe like one of toys
Move like one of the boys
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
One day I
While walking heard a
Strange deep cry
I went there
Figured it out
Then I saw
A woman on smooth threads
Very well said, she said
A king laid his bed
Promised for quest
Weave him golden silk
Then she will be Queen
The girl don't know how
But I know I can
We made an agreement
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
Spun me gold
She whispered to me
Then I said
Give that thing
I love her ring
After that
Her lil wish was granted
King's wants as well
She can't really tell
How I did it
I said that is magic
Said she aren't sick
All I made are tricks
Problems are all fixed
I guess they are now fixed
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
Years have past
The lady is now a Queen
King marries
Then baby
I remember
That one deal
With that Queen on woods
Her words on my heart's still
I will be back now
Get ready dear
I will get what is mine
You said that is mine
But now it seems not
You said you forgot
Did you really forgot?
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
"Where is it?"
I asked the great Queen
"Please, please, don't"
Said the Queen
"Then guess my name"
That's my game
If you guess it then
I will let you live free
"Hunchback!" "Ichibod!"
And "Jeremiah!"
"That is not my name, Queen"
"Please! Give me more time"
"Promise, I'll answer"
"Shout your true name here!"
"Please! Please! Don't make me tear"
( Chorus )
They ask for my name
But that is my game
If you'll ask the same
Better join that game
( RAP )
I came back
To her castle dear
One morning
Head to court
"What is my name?"
The Queen think
Spit some unusual names
No one can ever think
There she lost her air
Saw her despair
But one name surprised me
When she is losing
When she's hard breathing
"You're Rumpelstiltskin!"
You won the game, my Queen

Forget the story
Cause this is now the end
