Lyrics:

Buried alive in their own private chamber
beneath the fallen rocks,
their source lights illuminated a fissure
in the recessed wall which had opened
just wide enough for them to pass through.
Immediately they were faced with a network of caves,
one of which appeared to exude minute traces of natural light.
Selecting this route, they found themselves stepping,
through a walled gallery of hieroglyphic art,
a seemingly never-ending pastiche of ancient man
and his constant struggle for survival.
They knew, from Professor Lidenbrook's documentation,
that on his journey two hundred years previously,
he himself had encountered a giant herdsman
in earth's inner sanctum.
As they strove to decipher the enigma that surrounded them,
they realised that having already survived
many thousands of years of almost static evolution
within this magical kingdom beneath the Earth's crust,
it was not inconceivable that this species of man still existed,
and it was to his world they had come, uninvited,
and almost certainly unwelcome.
