Aurelio Voltaire
Oubliette
[Verse 1]
Left, Right, Left
Then take five more steps
Do a pirouette 'round the statuette
What’s that sound
Coming from the ground?
Someone is turning all of the tiles around

[Pre-Chorus]
Danger is around the bend
If you could only see it
How will you make it to the end?

[Chorus]
Mind the map now and watch your step
Or you'll end up in an Oubliette
One wrong move and it's down, down, down
Pray the map isn’t upside down
Or you'll be stuck in the underground
In a cage from which there's no way out

[Verse 2]
Find the guards
Hiding behind cards
Ignore the onе on the right, 'cause he always liеs
Knock on the doors
That's what the knocker's for
Heed my sage advice, better mind the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Freedom is around the bend
If you could only see it
How will you make it to the end?

[Chorus]
Mind the map now and watch your step
Or you'll end up in an Oubliette
One wrong move and it's down, down, down
Pray the map isn’t upside down
Or you’ll be stuck in the underground
In a cage from which there's no way out

[Bridge]
And all these skeletons you see (Oooh-oooh-oooh-ooh) Each had a dream, now crumbling at your feet (Aaah-aaah-aah)
The maze is changing all around you all the time
How will you make it out alive?

[Chorus]
I read the map and I watched my step
And here I am in this Oubliette
One wrong move and it was down, down, down
I guess the damn thing was upside down
’cause now I'm stuck in the underground
In a cage from which there's no way out
Get me, get me, get me out of here
