The Game

"As a kid I loved the movie Jumanji and the quotes that were in the movie. Years later, I watched the movie again, put the quotes together, and the lyrics for this song came about" (L.)

In the jungle you must wait

Until the dice read five or eight

A hunter from the darkest wild

Makes you feel just like a child

This won´t be an easy mission

Monkeys slow the expedition

Don´t be fooled it isn´t thunder

Staying put would be a blunder

Ref.

A game for those who seek to find

A way to leave their world behind

A law of game having been broken

You´ll slip back even more than your token

Beware of the ground for which you stand

The floor is quicker than the sand

A tiny bite can make you itch

Make you sneeze, make you twitch

You're almost there with much at stake

But now the ground begins to quake

There is a lesson you will learn

Sometimes you must go back a turn
