The Mannequins

The mannequins stand at the gates like dolls Up against the castle brick walls The stand there without a peep In truth, they are fast asleep The wait until everyone is gone They know they must sleep at the crack of dawn

When they wake, they tidy themselves The want to look their personal best Even thought they want to dress like themselves They just hoped that it was all a test

They know that they need to do these things If the want to be freed: The mannequins stand at the gates like dolls Up against the castle brick walls The stand there without a peep In truth, they are fast asleep The wait until everyone is gone They know they must sleep at the crack of dawn
