| Song | The Court of the Crimson King |
| Artist | King Crimson |
| Album | Cirkus: The Young Person's Guide to King Crimson - Live |
| 作词 : Fripp, McDonald, Sinfield | |
| The dance of the puppets | |
| The rusted chains of prison moons | |
| Are shattered by the sun. | |
| I walk a road, horizons change | |
| The tournament's begun. | |
| The purple piper plays his tune, | |
| The choir softly sing; | |
| Three lullabies in an ancient tongue, | |
| For the court of the crimson king. | |
| The keeper of the city keys | |
| Put shutters on the dreams. | |
| I wait outside the pilgrim's door | |
| With insufficient schemes. | |
| The black queen chants | |
| The funeral march, | |
| The cracked brass bells will ring; | |
| To summon back the fire witch | |
| To the court of the crimson king. | |
| The gardener plants an evergreen | |
| Whilst trampling on a flower. | |
| I chase the wind of a prism ship | |
| To taste the sweet and sour. | |
| The pattern juggler lifts his hand; | |
| The orchestra begin. | |
| As slowly turns the grinding wheel | |
| In the court of the crimson king. | |
| On soft gray mornings widows cry | |
| The wise men share a joke; | |
| I run to grasp divining signs | |
| To satisfy the hoax. | |
| The yellow jester does not play | |
| But gentle pulls the strings | |
| And smiles as the puppets dance | |
| In the court of the crimson king. |
