Song Lyrics

  • It's only forever, it's not long at all...
  • Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl, 'cause it hurts like hell...
  • Down in The Underground, you'll find someone true...
  • Everything I've done, I've done for you. I move the stars for no one...
  • Your eyes can be so cruel, just as I can be so cruel...
  • You remind me of the babe (what babe?) the babe with the power (what power?) the power of voodoo (who do?) you do (do what?) remind me of the babe...
  • There's such a sad love deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel, opened and closed within your eyes, I'll place the sky within your eyes...
  • I'll paint you mornings of gold, I'll spin you Valentine evenings...
  • Good times, bad food...

Lines by Sarah

  • Give me the child. Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom is as great... For my will is as strong as yours. My kingdom is great... Damn. Oh, I can never remember that line.
  • Once upon a time, there was a beautiful young girl whose stepmother always made her stay home with the baby. And the baby was a spoiled child, and wanted everything for himself, and the young girl was practically a slave. But what no one knew is that the king of the goblins had fallen in love with the girl, and he had given her certain powers. So one night, when the baby had been particularly cruel to her, she called on the goblins for help!
  • I can bear it no longer! Goblin King! Goblin King! Wherever you may be take this child of mine far away from me!
  • Sarah: Ow! It bit me!
    Hoggle: What'd you expect fairies to do?
    Sarah: I thought they did nice things, like granting wishes!
    Hoggle: Shows what you know, don't it?
  • Sarah: That's not fair!
    Jareth: You say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is?
  • Sarah: Help!
    Hands 1: What do you mean help? We are Helping.
    Hands 2: We're Helping Hands.

Lines by Jareth

  • You have thirteen hours in which to solve the labyrinth, before your baby brother becomes one of us... forever. Such a pity.
  • I ask for so little. Just fear me, love me, do as I say and I will be your slave.
  • It's a crystal. Nothing more. But if you turn it this way and look into it, it will show you your dreams. But this is not a gift for an ordinary girl, who takes care of a screaming baby.
  • Sarah, go back to your room. Play with your toys and your costumes. Forget about the baby.
  • Everything that you wanted I have done. You asked that child be taken, I took him. You cowered before me and I was frightening. I have reordered time, I have turned the world upside down, and I have done it all for you! I am exhausted from living up to your expectations of me. Isn't that generous?
  • So, the Labyrinth's a piece of cake, is it? Well, let's see how you deal with this little slice!
  • What is that plastic thing 'round your wrist?
  • In nine hours and twenty-three minutes... you'll be mine!
  • I think I'll call him Jareth. He's got my eyes.
  • Nothing? Nothing tra-la-la?!

Other Characters

  • Stepmother: She treats me like a wicked stepmother in a fairy story, no matter what I say.
  • Worm: 'Ello.
    Sarah: Did you say... hello?
    Worm: No, I said "'ello," but that's close enough.
  • Worm: If she'd 'ave kept on goin' down that way she'd 'ave gone straight to that castle.
  • Hoggle: You need to understand my position: I'm a coward. And Jareth scares me.
    Sarah: What kind of position is that?
    Hoggle: NO position! That's my point! And you wouldn't be so brave if you'd ever smelled the Bog of Eternal Stench. It's, it's...
    Sarah: Is that all it does, is smell?
    Hoggle: Oh, believe me, that's enough. But the worst thing is, if you so much as put a foot in the Bog of Stench, you'll smell bad for the rest of your life. It'll never wash off.
  • Hoggle: This is an oubliette. Labyrinth's full of 'em.
    Sarah: Really... I didn't know that.
    Hoggle: Oh, don't sound so smart! You don't even know what an oubliette is.
    Sarah: Do you?
    Hoggle: Yes. It's a place where you put people... to forget about 'em!
  • Jareth: Hello, Hedgewart.
    Sarah: Hogwart.
    Hoggle: HOGGLE!
  • If I thought for one second you were betraying me, I'd be forced to suspend you head first in the Bog of Eternal Stench.
    Hoggle: OH NO, YOUR MAJESTY! NOT THE ETERNAL STENCH!
    Jareth: Oh, YES, Hoggle!
  • Ludo: SMELL BAD!
  • Ludo: Sure. Rocks friends.
  • Hoggle: What did you have to go and do a thing like that for?!
    Sarah: You mean rescue you?
    Hoggle: No! You kissed me!
  • Didymus: I have sworn with my lifeblood no one shall pass without my permission.
    Sarah: Well... May we have your permission?
    Didymus: Well I, uh... I... that is, uh... hm... Yes.
  • Didymus: I say, does anyone want to play a game of Scrabble?
  • Hoggle: You know your problem? You take too many things for granted. Take this Labyrinth: even if you get to the centre, you'll never get out again.
    Sarah: That's your opinion.
    Hoggle: Well, it's a lot better than yours!
    Sarah: Thanks for nothing, Hogwart.
    Hoggle: [growls] It's HOGGLE, and don't say I didn't warn you!
  • Top Red Guard: I should warn you that one of us always tells the truth, and one of us always lies. That's the rules too, he always lies.
    Top Blue Guard: I do not! I tell the truth!
    Top Red Guard: Oooh, what a lie!
  • Hoggle: The Cleaners, the Bog of Stench-- you sure got his attention!
  • False Alarm 1: Don't go on.
    False Alarm 2: Go back while you still can.
    False Alarm 3: This is not the way.
    False Alarm 4: Take heed, and go no further.
    False Alarm 5: Beware, beware.
    False Alarm 6: Soon it will be too late.
    Hoggle: (to Sarah) Don't pay any attention to them. They're just False Alarms. You get a lot of them in the Labyrinth, especially when you're on the right track...
    False Alarm 7: Oh, no you're not.
    Hoggle: Oh, shut up!
    False Alarm 7: Sorry, just doing my job.
    Hoggle: Well you don't have to do it to us!
    False Alarm 8: Beware, for the...
    Hoggle: Just forget it!
    False Alarm 8: Oh please, I haven't said it for such a long time!
    Hoggle:Oh, all right, but don't expect a big reaction!
    False Alarm 8: No no no, of course not!
  • Jareth: Oh dear, poor Hoghead.
    Hoggle: Hoggle.
    Jareth: I've just noticed that your lovely jewels are missing.
    Hoggle: Uh, oh, yes! So they are. My lovely jewels. Missing. I'd better find 'em, but first, I'll take that young lady back to the beginning, just like we planned!
    Jareth: Wait! I've got a much better plan, Hoggle. Give her this.
    [tosses him a peach]
    Hoggle: What is it?
    Jareth: It's a present.
    Hoggle: Ain't gonna hurt the little lady, is it?
    Jareth: Now, why the concern?
    Hoggle: I won't do nothin' to harm her.
    Jareth: Oh, come, come, come, Hogbrain! I'm suprised at you, losing your head over a girl.
    Hoggle: I ain't lost my head!
    Jareth: You don't think a young girl could like a repulsive little scab like you, do you?
    Hoggle: Well, she did say we was...
    Jareth: What? Bosom companions? Friends?
    Hoggle: It don't matter.
    Jareth: You'll give her that peach, Hoggle, or I'll dip you straight into the Bog of Eternal Stench before you can blink! And Hoggle? If she ever kisses you, I'll turn you into a prince.
    Hoggle: You will?
    Jareth: Prince of the Land of Stench! [laughs]
