Rock Bottom Lyrics
Track A3: Back To The Beginning
All: Tick,
tock!
It’s time to travel
on a journey!
Tick, tock!
We’re turning back
the hands of time!
The past becoming
the future,
The future fading
to black.
We’ll take a walk
into history,
So stop the clock
‘cos we’re going back!
Time to pack,
Hit the track!
Going back to the
beginning,
Rewinding the clock,
‘Cos we’re singing
and we’re spinning
Around on a rock.
Going back to the
beginning,
Where evil was
prime.
We’re on a journey
to the dawn of time!
Going back to the
beginning,
Rewinding the
clock,
‘Cos we’re singing
and we’re spinning
Around on a rock.
Going back to the
beginning,
Where evil was
prime.
We’re going back in
time!
Going back, going
back!
Crater: You know we’re going back in time to where
it - all began!
Crevice: And we don’t even need a Tardis
or DeLorean!
Creek: Because we’re heading for the
Stone Age if you want to be specific!
Timekeepers: When man was brave
And lived in caves
And
acted Neolithic!
All: Tick,
tock!
We’re heading for a
new horizon!
Tick, tock!
We’re bound for
where it all began!
We’ll turn the tide
of the seasons,
We’ll make the
calendar crack.
We’ll take a walk
into history,
So stop the clock
‘cos we’re going back!
Time to pack,
Hit the track!
Going back to the
beginning,
Rewinding the clock,
‘Cos we’re singing
and we’re spinning
Around on a rock.
Going back to the
beginning,
Where
evil was prime.
We’re on a journey
to the dawn of time!
Going back to the
beginning,
Rewinding the
clock,
‘Cos we’re singing
and we’re spinning
Around on a rock.
Going back to the
beginning,
Where evil was
prime.

Track A59: Down Low
All: Down
low!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
working way below!
(Whistle)
We
whistle as we go!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
miners, don’t ya know!
(Whistle)
We
go down low!
(Whistle)
We’re
Argie, Bargie, Cheeky, Dippy,
Eggy,
Floppy, Grouch!
And
Morris is the bossy one
Who
orders us about!
We
dig around deep underground
To
earn our daily dough.
And
though we seem to be a team,
We
always work so low!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
working way below!
(Whistle)
We
whistle as we go!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
miners, don’t ya know!
(Whistle)
We
go down low!
(Whistle)
We’re
just the Mini Miners,
We’re
not seven, we’re not dwarfs,
‘Cos
that would be a very different
Musical,
of course.
Our
tune may sound familiar
But
you must have heard it wrong,
‘Cos
Disney own the copyright
To
that specific song!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
working way below!
(Whistle)
We
whistle as we go!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
miners, don’t ya know!
(Whistle)
We
go down low!
We
don’t know but we’ve been told...
We
are worth our weight in gold!
Mini
Miners are the best...
Helmet
and a thermal vest!
Music
keeps us all in line…
When
we’re going down the mine!
Getting
groovy underground...
We’re
the best at getting down!
Get
down! Get down!
Get
down! Get down!
Get
down…!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
working way below!
(Whistle)
We
whistle as we go!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
miners, don’t ya know!
(Whistle)
We
go down low!
Down
low, down low!
We’re
working way below!
For
life is fine deep down a mine
And
so we go
Down
low…!
Whistle
while you’re working
Way
down low!

Track B7: Welcome To My Life (Reprise)
Bobby: I just give up. All my ideas are useless. I
dreamed of being a success, but look at me now. The whole town is relying on
me, and I can’t do a thing to help them. Gran, Gramps… I’ve let you down.
Bobby: Life...
Can
be hard; I don’t know why,
And
although I always
Try my best to pass
the test,
I just stumble and
I fall.
Dreams...
Seem to crumble
into dust,
And the people say
You
just can’t win, give up; give in,
So maybe I should
never try at all.
So welcome to my
life!
So welcome to my
world!
A world where each
day is the same
‘Cos I’m failing
again,
And my dreaming has
to end.
So welcome to my
life!
So welcome to my
world!
A world where I
hope and I pray
That I’ll make it
some day,
But till then… I
need a friend.
(Bobby moves over to the time-turner and
sadly examines it, then slowly returns to the centre and sinks dejectedly to
his knees to sing his final line.)
So welcome to my
life!
Track B8: Start All Over Again
All: There’s
a secret! There’s a secret! There’s a secret!
There’s a secret if
you’re seeking success,
Don’t be moody if
you’re making a mess.
Failing’s just a
way to learn and nothing less,
So don’t give up;
don’t give in!
‘Cos when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over again!
All over again!
All over again!
Yes when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over and then
Your goal is
guaranteed!
That’s the only way
to succeed!
There’s a secret!
There’s a secret! There’s a secret!
There’s a secret so
we’re singing this song,
Learn this lesson
and your life will be long.
It’s all right to
get it wrong so come along,
And don’t give up;
don’t give in!
‘Cos when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over again!
All over again!
All over again!
Yes when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over and then
Your goal is
guaranteed!
That’s
the only way to succeed!
(The Eggheads perform a short dance over
the instrumental, then join in with the chorus once more.)
‘Cos when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over again!
All over again!
All over again!
Yes when it...
Falls apart, just
start all over and then
Your goal is
guaranteed!
That’s the only way
to…
Persevere and stay
true!
That’s the only way
to…
Whoa………
(Bobby starts hatching an idea as the
eggheads gather round and raise their arms towards him. We hear a bell as a large
light bulb appears above Bobby’s head, held by one of the Eggheads.)
Group 1: To
succeed!
Group 2: That’s
the secret!
Group 1: To
succeed!
Group 2: That’s
the secret!
Group 1: To
succeed!
Group 2: That’s
the secret!
All: Start
all over again!
Track B28: Spell On You
Lady Lava: But I’ve saved some for you! You see, I
have a way to get people to do what I want. And soon you, too, will be under my
spell! (shouted) Arriba!
There’s a little
thing I know,
It’s called magic!
All: Magic!
Lady Lava: There’s
a little thing I know, but don’t tell!
Oh I’ll be queen of
the land and ocean!
With a sip of my
magic potion!
Bow before me with
deep devotion,
Underneath my
spell!

potion?
Lady Lava: Bat toes.
Bobby: Well I can’t drink that. I’m bat
toes intolerant.
Lady Lava: Oh, you’ll drink it all right. And
then you’ll be under my spell!
There is something
you should know
About magic.
All: Magic!
Lady Lava: It’s
a special thing I do, and do well!
There’s a magical
web I’m weaving,
Please just swallow
and don’t keep heaving.

(Lady Lava brews her potion and calls out the ingredients in time to
the music as everyone else sings and dances as if in a trance.)
Lady Lava:
Tongue of frog and
toe of bat,
Leg of dog and eye of cat,
Brush of bog and woolly hat,
I’m going to put a spell on you!
