Candlemass - Dancing In The Temple (Of The Mad Queen Bee) Lyrics






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

Asks me if I wanna stay
Sing with the trolls and the fays
Swim in her emerald lake
I'm dancing in the temple of the mad queen bee

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

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

A sip from the well
I am locked in a spell
Trapped in a grim fairytale
Endless the fun
I wish I had a gun
But I'm dancing forever... from room to room...

We dance the fandango,
We do menuet
Waltz in her shadow palais
Listen to the strings of a goblin quartet
See the magic ballet

Asks me if I wanna stay
Sing with the trolls and the fays
Swim in her emerald lake
I'm dancing in the temple of the mad queen bee

A sip from the well
I am locked in a spell
Trapped in a grim fairytale
Endless the fun
I wish I had a gun
I'm dancing in the temple of the mad queen bee

  1. A.... B....

    what is a fay?

  2. D.... ....

    Candlemass + Uriah Heep = Psalms For the Dead

  3. S.... K....

    Must buy album.

  4. S.... D....

    love this song lol

  5. D.... ....

    I love this song, though we know Bewitched etc will always be their best

    D.... ....

    Demons Gate is what you need

  6. d.... ....

    I am loving this songs.  The lyrics are as fantastic as those in their song Ancient Dreams.

  7. a.... ....

    Opinions bro.

  8. i.... ....

    Messiah was annoying as hell. I hated his bleating-sheep vibrato.
    I loved his tone, but the vibrato annoyed the hell out of me.
    When they first came out i thought they were incredible, and Johan Längqvist was an awesome singer - but when the second record came out, I was disappointed to see that he was no longer their vocalist. Sure, they put out some great material with MM, but a lot of people just didn't like him.it's like King Diamond. I love his band,but his voice irritates me.

  9. m.... w....

    most of them, are of the best quality...

  10. m.... w....

    7 albums without Messiah, 4 albums with...

  11. H.... ....

    Man, as I can see, you just want to troll. Get the fuck out of here, if you really don't like this music, don't listen to it.

    Peace.

  12. t.... ....

    brilliance ! YES !

  13. T.... ....

    Compromise with a hive/throne?

  14. t.... ....

    first listen second third fourth fifth... still nothing, then nothing... where is the epic ?? where is the metal ?? all i hear is tenacious d ... aka bullshit

  15. t.... ....

    i would rather them in the hive... the world needs more honey bees

  16. t.... ....

    having kept bee's i can honestly say the "solo' guitarist has the feeling of the hive down semi-well... the guy on the vocals (probably didn't write these lyrics) has no clue about the hive or what it's like to dance in the temple of the true queen bee, Brigid (if im wrong please forgive me... i will give my honest and deepset and most sincere apologies). this seems to be written by rock opera fans that are dedicated to the temple of jack black's super pop culture... NOT of the true Imbolc means

  17. f.... ....

    Uh. No.

  18. F.... A....

    Aeeeeeeeeee, o máximo!

  19. D.... O....

    Good stuff although I wish they made more albums with Johan.

  20. T.... ....

    I want a throne of bees......

  21. V.... A....

    2 ατομα είστε??

  22. A.... ....

    rainbow

  23. a.... ....

    why? messiah was awesome

  24. A.... K....

    Thankfuck they got rid of Messiah.

  25. f.... ....

    Greek Candlemass Legion re mounia \m/

  26. m.... m....

    omg omg they are back!!!!!

  27. L.... ....

    Even with all the band member changes, I don't think I've heard a single bad set up from these guys. Very good stuff

  28. m.... d....

    Robert Lowe is no longer the singer for Candlemass
    For the upcoming shows Robert will be replaced with Mats Levén,
    longtime friend of the band.

  29. e.... ....

    beastly solo

  30. w.... ....

    holy mother of god... this song is just fucking awesome,,, and the solos!!! WOW

  31. A.... ....

    if Johan Längquist sang on this one, it would be epic as hell!!

  32. m.... m....

    the best two vocalsits in doom metal bands
    Robert Lowe & Messiah
    But i think Messiah has the true style of Candlemass

  33. Y.... ....

    They got rid of Robert Lowe today, based on the claim that he couldnt perform adequetly well live and already replaced him with Mats Leven....Go figure!

  34. A.... O....

    you cant compare anyone to the messiah
    lowe is great, but dont mind he is better than messiah

  35. J.... E....

    MESSIAH WE MISSSSSS YOUUUUUUUUUUUU

  36. V.... P....

    Not a bad song, the beginning reminds me of "He who sleeps amongst the stars". The album seems to be a bit worse than "Death Magic Doom". However, can't wait for the release

  37. D.... ....

    I don't consider constant vibrato epic, and that's really all Messiah is good at. And it's fine sometimes, he does it well and all, but after hearing song after song of it I really find it grating, which makes any disc he sings on hard to get through for me honestly. Though this song isn't Lowe's greatest performance either, can't argue with you there...

  38. �.... ....

    Gonna see em in June, finally! :))

  39. C.... O....

    ONLY LOWE !!! LOVE LOWE!!!

  40. k.... ....

    I could tell you. But then I'd have to kill you :)

  41. D.... ....

    Couldn't disagree more, Lowe is sooooo much more powerful than Messiah ever was(sorry, vibrato does not equal power, and that is ALL Messiah has ever been able to do). The only guy Candlemass has had who's as good or better than Lowe is the guy who sang on the debut.

  42. k.... ....

    I've already heard the whole album and I can tell you: it's fuckin' goooood ]:>

  43. A.... ....

    The beggining kinda sounds like Krux song "He who sleeps among the stars" but the mid section and the solos still sound great. I cant wait for the full album : )

  44. w.... ....

    Unusually short for a CM-song. Did they try out for the Eurovision again?

  45. C.... M....

    Increible!!! EPIC DOOM METAL !!!

  46. C.... B....

    love the solos they are amazing

  47. N.... Z....

    Nope, they are not breaking up... They are just not going to do more albums.

  48. R.... ....

    This gave me goose bumps. Cannot. Wait. Until. June.

  49. C.... o....

    Epic album artwork. Definitely going to buy this album when it comes out. Not disappointed at all with this song.

  50. A.... ....

    This is growing on me

  51. N.... ....

    don't know why.. I really doubt Master Leif will ever write any boring songs ,and Robert's voice will ever get boring

  52. N.... Z....

    Intro sounds like slower version of Krux's "He Who Sleeps Amongst The Stars". Well...

  53. R.... C....

    i can't believe this will be the last work from candlemass!!! they are still amazing .

  54. D.... ....

    Oh Wow! This is awesome!! The new album should be EPIC!!

  55. h.... ....

    i heard them, they arent on the internet jet:S

  56. E.... M....

    Great stuff.

  57. N.... ....

    where did u find the lyrics?

  58. h.... ....

    the lyric are fantastic!!!!
    master lief has done it agien

  59. N.... ....

  60. N.... ....
