Labyrinth Zone with lyrics - Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis)

In a world, where one team of game developers put the most frustrating levels in the middle of the game for some reason, one hedgehog must overcome badniks, projectiles, balls on chains, and that weird glitch that allows spikes to penetrate your mercy invulnerability.
This song is about my part in this struggle.
Sonic the Hedgehog was an interactive joypad-input-interpreting experience released for Sega's pixel-based entertainment funbox, the Mega Drive, in 1991.
Much of the game evoked enjoyment by facilitating the use of speed by the user, allowing them to experience a brisk pace that they could not experience in reality without being involved in an accident caused by friction-reducing sneakers and a big wheel (assuming you subscribe to the K=R canon).
This section of the game subverted this by forcing the user to locomote through a chemical substance known as water, which would inhibit high-speed hi-jinks and, in some cases, living.
Who does that?
LYRICS:
Down in the Labyrinth Zone
It makes me tired of being alive
Stuck in the Labyrinth Zone
With all the dangers I despise
Why in the Labyrinth Zone?
I must be running out of luck
Always the Labyrinth Zone
I wish you'd all get
out of my way
Up in the shallows I'm
begging for clemency
Please don't make me go down
Robots descend en masse
While the true enemy's
Harvesting penguins for bad intentions
I love the Spring Yard Zone
But I'm afraid this isn't it
Although I do like the...
Nope, everything is poor
I think you guys should move
To the Aquatic Ruin Zone
Let's seal this place up now
Behind a wall and
never return
Wand'ring the ruins of
Is this a temple?
Who would build this and why?
Foxes can swim, for hedgehogs
Not so simple
Drowning before they can reach the surface
Down in the Scrap Brain Zone
sigh You've brought me back for more
This place made you so proud
You made me do Act number 4
D'you think I play this game
To clumsily crawl after rings?
And stumble into spikes?
Next time I'm here
I'll burn everything

RadicalSodas version is better

I actually enjoy the labyrinth zone. I admit that the music was the main thing that made it tolerable. Like always, good music can double the enjoyment of a game. Imagine playing Sonic or Mario without music or with bad music. It wouldn't be nearly as good.

This zone is where that scary drowning music started.

Omg this version of Labyrinth is so well put together. Excellent job.

Ironically, hedgehogs can swim. The only reason Sonic can't is because Yuji Naka didn't think they could.

I just fell in love with the Chorus and verse 3.

Aquatic Ruins = You never have to even touch the water as long as you stay on the top
