We're in the cave of the monkeys' buffet

They're screaming and noisy all over the way

I hear em coming

Cannot stay

Try to escape

In another direction

Suddenly seeing a reflection

On the wall a big black shadow of a beast so cruel

If I would scream; I'd break the rule

If I'd run away it will follow

The way up to my tree

And destroy everything I've got

Then destroy me

If I'd turn around and fight the beast

I'll have a chance of life

No matter what it costs

No matter if I'd lost

I'd try

Myself stopping my silent cry

Turning around to the beast

Just cause I was at least

Wanting to see which big monster was living in the devil's house

But the big monster no monster was

It was only a little mouse
