Rumpelstiltskin is the eponymous character and antagonist of a fairy tale that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen). The tale was collected by the Brothers Grimm, who first published it in the 1812 edition of Children's and Household Tales. It was subsequently revised in later editions.
In order to make himself appear more important, a miller lied to a king, telling him that his daughter could spin straw into gold. The king called for the girl, shut her in a tower room with straw and a spinning wheel, and demanded that she spin the straw into gold by morning, for three nights, or be executed (other versions have the king threatening to lock her up in a dungeon forever). She had given up all hope, when an impish creature appeared in the room and spun straw into gold for her in return for her necklace, then again the following night for her ring. On the third night, when she had nothing with which to reward him, the strange creature spun straw into gold for a promise that the girl's first-born child would become his.

Genres: Animation, Family,Everyday, just a little bit closer
Everyday, just a little bit harder
Everyday, just a little bit stronger
Everyday, gives me a reason
Shrinking down to nothing
Ants build houses where I sleep
Crowds of people trample by
Rush hour traffic all through the night
Glowing embraces after midnight mass
Renews my faith in the magic castle
Try to hide their fancy cars
And their "boom-boom" brides
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever would I dream?
Silver bells come 'round again
I'm spinning in a vicious circle
When the rainbow touches down at my feet
I'll be standing in a pot of gold
Someone told me "if I stick to it I can get what I want"
'Cause you could have the world at your fingertips
If you're willing to work your ass off for it
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever
If I could sleep forever
If my credit cards were all paid off
Would they spin like rumpelstiltskin?
If I changed my lover down the line
