Hoodoo Gurus

In The Echo Chamber

As I was out walking home alone one night

I saw this man approaching, he wore a coat of white

He said, "You don't know me, but you'll very soon find out

Then the world was darkness as a cloth clamped around my mouth

I said, where am I? Ohh

Where am I? Ohh

I'm gonna rue

How can I escape?

Slowly I recovered, my head was aching bad

I was laying on the carpet inside this madman's lab

Then a voice was speaking from behind a glass walled booth

It said, "Welcome stranger, we've got serious work to do"

Where am I? Ohh

Where am I? Ohh

Someone say more

What's his fiendish plan?

He simply, calmly said "You are my guinea pig

I'm an unsound engineer

I'm going to see how much a man can dig

A thousand voices in his ever decreasing human ear"

In the echo chamber I almost went insane

Even my own heartbeat caused my eardrum pain

It was like a Phil Spector nightmare, that crazy echo machine ran wild

It was louder, getting louder, I thought that I would die

Where am I? Ohh

Where am I? Ohh, say more

I never got out of there though I've tried and tried

For twenty more years

That's why I am where I am now, yes

Where am l? Ohh, where am l? Ohh

Where am l? Ohh, where am l?

Gonna tear it down before I go

Ah, c'mon, Michaelangelo, you know
