| He’s a mouse in a maze |
| With its so many ways |
| But there’s only one way to get out |
| Ever nearing eyes |
| Watch him as he tries |
| To correct that one same mistake |
| It souldn’t take long |
| Oh, where did he go wrong |
| He’s tried so hard it must be in his fate |
| For everybody else |
| It’s quick they need no help |
| Why must it take him so long |
| He’s been this way before |
| Stares at the final door |
| The one he’s missed |
| Each time he’s been around, around |
| With plenty of advice |
| From all the other mice |
| Sets out and hopes he’s got it straight |
| His audience will grow |
| As long as he is slow |
| They love to watch another man’s mistakes |
| As more of them arrive |
| His path is more disguised |
| Confusion seems to cloud his every thought |
| But it’s been this way before |
| Stares at the final door |
| The one he’s missed |
| Each time he’s been around, around |
| Ever nearing eyes |
| Watch him as he tries |
| To correct that one same mistake |
| It souldn’t take long |
| Oh, where did he go wrong |
| He’s tried so hard it must be in his fate |

| Why must it take him so long |
| But he’s been this way before |
| Stares at the final door |
| The one he’s missed |
