Muster, muster, stand before me now
All you who are blessed by birth
Through me alone your future shall unfold
And its quantities of misery and mirth
Some through me shall gingerly tread
Some may run, skip or dance
Whatever way, you must take what you can
From me . . . the Labyrinth of Chance.
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, from me, the Labyrinth of Chance.
Go with open eyes through my tunnels of light
In the footsteps of those gone before
But go with caution if my abysses are dark
For it may be danger you explore
By ploughing dark some may harvest light
Dictating the sidle or prance
Or tardy adventurers who are seeking their rewards
In me . . . the Labyrinth of Chance.
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, from me, the Labyrinth of Chance.
Awaiting shortcuts?
Now don't you wait too long
My walls are tough, they rarely yield
Don't go seeking for my lucky breaks
I keep them well concealed
I can't deny I have some in store
If you sprint or you cannily advance
There are few who don't earn their quality of life
In me, ... the Labyrinth of Chance.
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, from me, the labyrinth of chance.
So enter by my front door
And a few by my side
And make of me what you will
I wish you confidence and a presence of mind
And a great ambition to fulfil
But before that last great tunnel you traverse
In retrospect I want you to glance
How many tunnels did you light on your way
Through me . . . the Labyrinth of Chance?
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, through me, The Labyrinth of Chance.
