Verse 1

Once upon a time in the land of Sinaplenty

There lived a king who didn't deserve to be

He knew not where he came from

Nor where he was going

He never once said thank u, never please

Verse 2

Now this king had a subject named Electra

Who loved him with a passion uncontested

4 him each day she had a smile

 But it didn't matter

The king was looking 4 the ladder

Chorus 1

Everybody's looking for the ladder

Everybody wants salvation of the soul

 The steps you take are no easy road

 But the reward is great 4 those that want to go

Verse 3

A feeling of self worth will caress u

The size of the whole wide world will decrease

The love of God's creation will undress u

And time spent alone my friend will cease

Chorus 2

Everybody's looking for the answers

How the story started and how it will end

Whats the use in half a story half a dream

 U have to climb the steps inbetween

Everybody's looking for the ladder

Everybody wants salvation of the soul

 The steps you take are no easy road

 But the reward is great 4 those that want to go
