I thought it was a nightmare
But it wasn�t, it was real
Cause when we flipped it over
Off a bridge we landed safely very softly
Down

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Into the annex
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

We crept down many levels
to the birthing room
And there was girl
With yellow rubber gloves
She said hello
We looked inside
And under glass so fully grown said
�Welcome�

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
To the annex
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

We tried to find a way back up
and passing through the hallucinatorium
Mysterious green vapor and
Wendell moving arms real fast

A mustached scientist
distorted face behind the aquarium
And Mac had identical heads
One back, both very friendly
Singing �come in, come in�

We couldn�t find the exit
From the annex
And I thought I remember so I wrote it down

Now I�m turning yellow
Now I�m turning yellow again (now he's turning yellow)
Now I�m turning yellow (now he's turning yellow)
Now I�m turning yellow again (now he's turning yellow)
