Spellbound Lyrics

[00:13.98] From the cradle bars comes a beckoning voice
[00:17.13] It sends you spinning, you have no choice
[00:20.67]
[00:43.23] You hear laughter cracking through the walls
[00:46.45] It sends you spinning, you have no choice
[00:49.70] You hear laughter cracking through the walls
[00:52.99] It sends you spinning, you have no choice
[00:56.67] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[00:59.23] We are entranced, spellbound
[01:03.04] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[01:05.73] We are entranced, spellbound
[01:09.31] Spellbound, spellbound, oh-oh-oh
[01:15.99] Spellbound, spellbound
[01:19.22] Spellbound, spellbound
[01:22.50]
[01:28.54] And don't forget, when your elders forget
[01:33.58] To say their prayers
[01:36.65] Take them by the legs
[01:39.92] And throw 'em down the stairs
[01:41.66]
[01:54.02] When you think your toys have gone berserk
[01:57.28] It's an illusion you cannot shirk
[02:00.59] You hear laughter cracking through the walls
[02:03.80] It sends you spinning, you have no choice
[02:07.43] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[02:10.16] We are entranced, spellbound
[02:13.97] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[02:16.69] We are entranced, spellbound
[02:20.03] Spellbound, spellbound, oh-oh-oh
[02:24.99] Spellbound
[02:26.68] Spellbound, spellbound
[02:29.77] Spellbound, spellbound
[02:33.18]
[02:45.64] Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah, oh-oh-oh
[02:52.04] Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[02:56.84] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[03:01.28] We are entranced
[03:03.26] Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
[03:07.89] We are entranced, entranced, entranced
[03:09.89] Dance, dance, dance
[03:11.64]
