[Intro: Lizzie Freeman, Michael Kovach & Alex Rochon]

Dropped into this digital world

Spinning items overhead, has my head in a whirl

What's happening here? Can I put this on pause?

Why can't I take this stupid headset off?

Okay, just breathe, and try to relax

Think logically before you have a panic attack

Maybe this is a dream about a circus

Caine, a new sucker's here

Ah! Glad you could join us!

[Verse 1: Alex Rochon, Gooseworx & Lizzie Freeman]

Welcome to this extraordinary display

A new adventure just awaiting for you every single day

Enjoy the carnival here! How 'bout the digital lake?

Or maybe a slice of some angel food cake? (Nom!)

And, of course, the void! Vast emptiness and space

Who knows what's out there in this wide open place?

Let's head back now, it's almost time to start

Wait, is that a—

No time! You'll miss the chorus part!


[Chorus: Lizzie Freeman]

What's going on in this cyberspace?

Things popping up and jumping up all over there place

Is there even an escape or a place to go?

I just want to leave, not be a part of the show

Didn't ask for a way out of reality

To wind up doing digital theatricalities

Just want to find my way back home

Before I lose my mind and self control

[Post-Chorus: Alex Rochon & Michael Kovach]

Gather the gloinks!

Good luck my superstars!

Yeah, no thanks, you two go handle it

C'mon girls, let's go harass the clown


[Verse 2: Amanda Hufford]

Just try to stay calm short stuff

Everything will be alright (Alright!)

We've been at this for years with

No exit anywhere in sight

Try not to think about how you can't leave

Freedom so out of reach, it'll drive you crazy

Just keep your head and don't get distracted

Holy ****! Kaufmo's been abstracted!

[Verse 3: Michael Kovach, Sean Chiplock, Marissa Lenti & Elsie Lovelock]

I'd better stay away, rather not get caught

I think for once I'm fine with missing the best part (Jax!)

We saw a piece of Zooble go down this hole

Hey, this might just lead us to our ultimate goal

Running from a big and abstractical being

Come to face a great, disgusting thing I'm seeing

I'm the Gloink Queen! Have some respect for my name!

Yeah, right, a name like that would just put me right to shame


[Chorus: Lizzie Freeman]

What's going on in this cyberspace?

Things popping up and jumping up all over there place

Is there even an escape or a place to go?

I just want to leave, not be a part of the show

Didn't ask for a way out of reality

To wind up doing digital theatricalities

Just want to find my way back home

Before I lose my mind and self control

Please let there be end to all these doors

I don't know if I can take it anymore

Left and right, with no end in sight

Holding on to sanity with all my might (All my might)

Vague memories inside my brain (Inside my brain)

Insanity I must contain (Must contain)

Hope all this effort won't be in vain

Or else I think I might just go insane


[Bridge: Lizzie Freeman]

Floating endlessly

Open and so free

Out here all alone

Into the unknown

Staring into nowhere seamlessly

Glaring lights, I'm lost in peacefully

Helpless here and yet I'm calm

Hypnotized by the great beyond


[Break: Alex Rochon]

There ya go!

Wouldn't want you wandering out there now, would we?


[Chorus: Lizzie Freeman]

Don't know what's up in this cyberspace

Things popping up and jumping up all over there place

Not even an escape or a place to go

No way to leave, just be a part of the show

Didn't ask for a way out of reality

Stuck performing digital theatricalities

Can't seem to find a way back home

Might lose my mind and self control

[Post-Chorus: Michael Kovach & Lizzie Freeman]

Trust us, there is no exit

Stop before you regret it

Give up, there is no exit

Won't be what you expected (Self control)

Trust us, there is no exit

Stop before you regret it

Give up, there is no exit

Won't be what you expected

[Outro: Michael Kovach & Ashley Nichols]

Thank goodness this is all a dream, right, Pomni?

Ugh, shut up, Jax
