In The Echo Chamber - Hoodoo Gurus

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?

Where am I?

I don’t know

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?

Where am I?

Someone say more

What’s his fiendish plan?

He 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

The echo machine ran wild

It was louder, getting louder

I thought that I would die

Where am I?

Where am I?

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

For twenty four years

That’s why I am where I am now

Where am I?

Where am I?

Where am I?

Where am I?

I’m gonna tear it down before I go

Ah, c’mon, Michaelangelo, you know
