Listen to the whispers, floating through the air
Listen to the whispers, they are everywhere-
There’s a new seer in town, if you can find her lair,
There’s a new seer in town, to tell you who, what when and where.

Wandering the city streets, you hear the news
Get your future told, who can refuse?
Travel to the temples, travel to the docks
wander all the residential blocks.

There… do you see it? Can you believe it?
The door all aglow brightly lit…
Knock politely; smell the cookies baking
the anticipation has your heart racing.

Come in dearies, you and you and you…
I knew you were coming and I baked these for you.
Take a cookie from her plate, take a bite
Oh no! You dropped a crumb! I’m sure it was spite!

ANTS! The crumbs will draw the ANTS, she screamed!
She stomped her feet and she steamed…
Then all of the sudden, somehow falling, falling
through the floor…smaller, smaller – you try calling.

Your voice is barely a squeak, and then you turn
Look around, where are you? It’s hard to discern
ANTS-as big as a house?
Nah, you’re smaller than a mouse.

Swords seem like toothpicks, my voice all-weak
I try to holler, nothing comes out but a squeak!
ANTS, ANTS – big enough to make me feel smaller
what I wouldn’t give to go back to being taller!

Keep looking! There’s got to be a way out
Keep fighting, I’m starting to have doubts…
Up there... look.. I smell fresh air
Alas... there’s no way to get way up there.

The ants are gone, all quite dead..
Let’s keep going, to see what’s ahead.
Spiders, oh my! Try not to get stuck
Their webs don’t hold, thank Mikon for luck.

Try to climb the web, unfortunately it breaks-
alas, that’s not going to be the escape...
Listen to the chitters through the crack in the wall
Do be careful, try not to fall.

Oh gross, the smells are fierce – breathe through your mouth
These bugs are all bitey, oh gods, it’s a louse!
Cover your hair, keep aiming, keep smiting
dark, smelly, dank… I no longer think this is exciting.

Look! Over there… do you see? Can you feel it
Cool fresh air, run closer, just a bit…
Get through that crack, and want to do a jig
Running, feeling strange… keep going – you’re getting big.

Into to the opening you duck-
seriously praying that you won’t get stuck.
A bandit here! It was all a ruse
Down he goes, at least you didn’t lose.

Listen to the whispers, floating through the air
Listen to the whispers, they are everywhere-
Listen to the whispers and beware-
Listen to the whispers of the seer’s lair
She won’t tell your future, she’ll give you a scare.
