He's a mouse in a mazeWith its so many waysBut there's only one way to get outHe's a mouse in a mazeWith its so man y waysBut there's only one way to get outEver nearing eyesWatch him as he triesTo correct that one same mistakeIt souldn't take longOh, where did he go wrongHe's tried so hard it must be in his fateFor everybody elseIt's quick they need no help Why must it take him so longHe's been this way beforeStares at the final doorThe one he's missedEach time he's been around, aroundWith plenty of adviceFrom all the other miceSets out and hopes he's got it straightHis audience will growAs long as he is slowThey love to watch another man's mistakesAs more of them arriveHis path is more disguisedConfusion seems to clou d his every thoughtBut it's been this way beforeStares at the final doorThe one he's missedEach time he's been around, arou ndChorus (x2)Ever nearing eyesWatch him as he triesTo correct that one same mistakeIt souldn't take longOh, where did he go wrongHe's tried so hard it must be in his fateFor everybody elseIt's quick they need no helpWhy must it take him so long But he's been this way beforeStares at the final doorThe one he's missed each time he's been around, aroundChorus
