[1st verse:]
You know the tale of the girl who was sittin'
By the fire, with her kitten
It's a story that was written long ago
You know that she was about to retire
When the glass above the fire
Seemed to suddenly expire like the snow
You know when the way was cleared
That she disappeared
Thro' the looking glass
You know that her name was Alice
So come along if you care
We'll take you there
You must prepare
To be a kiddie like you were when you read
Of the girl who was sittin' by the fire with her kitten
In the story that was written long ago
[Refrain:]
Come along with Alice
Into wonderland
To the lovely palace
Where they're all so grand
See the funny people
Strolling hand in hand
Come along and pass through the looking glass
Into wonderland
[2nd VERSE (more or less):]
Come take a peep at the queer-looking duchess
With the rabbit in her clutches
Which is just about as mauch as he can stand
There's Tweedledum, Tweedledee, hear them prattle
All about the broken rattle
Tweedledee has got a battle on his hands
Look here, you can see the Walrus
And there's the Carpenter by his side
Look there, at the little oysters
And Humpty Dumpty who'd fall
Down from the wall
That isn't all
You'll be delighted with the high-hatted man
Called the mad little hatter
Never mind about his patter
'Cause it really doesn't matter but it's grand
Alice in Wonderland
How do you get to Wonderland
Over the hill or underland
Or just behind a tree
When clouds go rolling by
They roll away and leave the sky
Where is the land behind the eye
People cannot see
Where can you see
Where do the stars go
Where is the crescent moon
They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon
Alice in Wonderland
Where is the path to Wonderland
Over the hill or here or there
I wonder where
Alice it's a wonder that you haven't been called under
By the swift and angry current of the times
Alice it's surprising you're so warm and sympathizing
When so many girls are faultless and unkind
You share all my problems and you try to help me solve them
When I'm down and out you always stand by me
Alice it's assuring knowing nothing world's maturing in the makeup of your personality
Which gives me cause to believe you're my Alice in Wonderland
The touch of a soothing hand the key to a perfect plan
And furthermore I believe you're a rose in the world of thorns
The calm in a raging storm my Alice in Wonderland
[ strings ]
Alice it's a wonder that your mind has not been plunder
By the cold and bitter willing of the seed
Alice it's surprising you're not always criticizing
Like so many women that I chanced to meet
You make me feel want it and not once have I been taught it
To a point where I desired to be free
Alice it's assuring knowing our love is enduring all the apsticles and dissociaty
Alice, pretty little Alice
Pretty little Alice in wonderland
Alice in wonderland
Oh, won't you take me by the hand
And lead me to your wonderland of love
I took one look at you
And that was all I had to do
Alice, you're the girl I'm dreamin' of
Tweedle dum, tweedle dee
You have made my life a fantasy
You don't know what you're doin' to me
My heart goes pitter patter
'Cause I'm mad as a hatter for
Alice my little girl
There is no other in this whole wide world
Take me by the hand, tell me you understand
Alice, Alice in wonderland
Tweedle dum, tweedle dee
You have made my life a fantasy
You don't know what you're doin' to me
My heart goes pitter patter
'Cause I'm mad as a hatter
Alice my little girl
There is no other in this whole wide world
Take me by the hand, tell me you understand
Alice, Alice in wonderland
Oh, Alice, pretty little Alice
When Alice has an answer it's a common rationality
She measures her phrases, tipping the scales of reality
But does she know that it's cold to sing songs to a troubled heart
Tho' her aim is sincere she's missing the mark
Chorus:
She paints her world in yellow and green, covering over the greys
'Cause life's demands are hard to understand
So Alice stays lost in her wonderland
I said - Alice look around you, people are falling to pieces
Yea, even the faithful, the ones who still believe in Jesus
But that doesn't mean they've fallen from grace
But in her landscape, their heartache is so out of place
CHORUS
So can we talk of shoes and of ships?
Can we talk of cabbages and kings?
And of learning to live with the mystery of things
CHORUS
Alice in wonderland,
Your ticket's in your hand,
Shufflin' off, easy, to sweet Buffalo.
An' I could help you fly,
But I can't go that high.
It makes my nose bleed,
Didn't you know?
And she says "Right.
"I just can't think about it right now.
"I just can't think about it right now."
I'd like to live,
I'd like to be.
I'd like to give all the givin' in me.
I'd like to help you find,
Some place with peace of mind.
Leave all your pain behind,
Sail away free.
And she says "Right.
"I just can't think about it right now.
"I just can't think about it right now."
Instrumental break.
Alice in wonderland,
I knew you'd understand.
There are some things that I just have to do.
No more hypocracy.
No animosity.
Changin' democracy:
How about you?
And she says "Right.
"I just can't think about it right now.
Painting the roses red
We're painting the roses red
We dare not stop
Or waste a drop
So let the paint be spread
We're painting the roses red
We're painting the roses red
Oh, painting the roses red
And many a tear we shed
Because we know
They'll cease to grow
In fact, they'll soon be dead
And yet we go ahead
Painting the roses red
Painting the roses red
We're painting the roses red
Oh, pardon me
But Mister Three
Why must you paint them red?
*talking*
Huh? Oh! Well, the fact is, Miss
We planted the white roses by mistake
And...
*singing*
The Queen she likes 'em red
If she saw white instead
She'd raise a fuss
And each of us
Would quickly lose his head
[Alice:Goodness!]
Since this is the part we dread
We're painting the roses red
[Alice:Oh, Dear! Then let me help you]
Painting the roses red
We're painting the roses red
Don't tell the Queen what you have seen
Or say that's what we said
But we're painting the roses red
Yes, painting the roses red
Not pink
Not green
Not aquamarine
I'm Alice, this is your wonderland!
Come on everybody my roller coaster is almost leavin'
Oooh whoohoo...
And we could take a ride through the night to my magic kingdom
Oooh whoohoo...
Your own castle in sky, where it feels like you just died and
Went to heaven
Oooh whoohoo...
And there's milion reasons why you choose to say behind, but just
Forget 'emmm
Oooh whoohoo...

Another world, where the lights don't matter, stars all gather
I'm Alice, this is your wonderland!
You can see the sun to the left outside your window
Oooh whoohoo...
Final destination for this evening is wherever your mind goes
Oooh whoohoo...
Great adventures to be had, cause the meter on the cab is broken
Oooh whoohoo...
Where the candy house is real, you can taste it if your mouth is
Open

World, where the lights don't matter, stars all gather
I'm Alice, this is your wonderland!

Fame into the rabbit hole, where feathers on the creatures glow
Glostop by for a spot of tea
A table's set for you and me
Down here with the wild things, and who knows what the wild brings
Purple fat kitty cat, never mind where you at
Ooh... oooh... oooh... oooh... OOOHHH!
Follow the leader into the rabbit hole, I'm gonna lead you into another
World, where the lights don't matter, stars all gather

Follow the leader into the rabbit hole, I'm gonna lead you into another
World, where the lights don't matter, stars together
I'm Alice, this is your wonderland!
Follow the leader into the rabbit hole, I'm gonna lead you into another

(In der Küche der Herzogin)
[...] ‘If everybody minded their own business,’
Said the Duchess, in a hoarse growl, ‘the world would go round
A deal faster than it does. ‘Which would not be an advantage,’
Said Alice, who felt
Very glad to get an opportunity of showing off a little of
Her knowledge. ‘Just think
What work it would make with the day and the night!
You see the earth takes
Twenty-four hours to turn round on its axis- [...]
Or is it twelve? I-’ Oh, don’t bother
Me,’ said the Duchess; ‘I never could abide figures!’
And with that she began nursing
Her child again, singing a sort of lullaby to it as she did so,
And giving it a violent
‘Take a minute to think about it, and then guess,’
Said the Red Queen.
‘Meanwhile, we’ll drink your health -
Queen Alice’s health!’ she screamed at the top of her voice,
And all the guests began drinking it directly,
And very queerly they managed it: some of them
Put their glasses upon their heads like extinguishers,
And drank all that trickled down their faces –
Others upset the decanters, and drank the wine as
It ran off the edges of the table – and three of them
(Who looked like kangaroos)
Scrambled into the dish of roast mutton,
And began eagerly lapping up the gravy, ‚
Just like pigs in a trough!‘ thought Alice.
(Das Bild wird zunehmend undeutlicher,
Und die Vision verblasst.

To the looking class world,
It was Alice that said
I've a sceptre in hand,
I've a crown on my head.
Let the looking glass creatures what ever they be
Come and dine with the Red Queen the White Queen and me.
O looking glass creatures quoth Alice draw near
Tis a honor to see me,
A favor to hear,
Tis a privilege high to have dinner and tea

All flowers:
Little bread-and-butterflies kiss
the tulips, and the sun is like a
toy balloon. There are get up in
the morning glories, in the golden
afternoon. There are dizzy daffodils
on the hillside, strings of violets
are all in tune, Tiger lilies love
the dandy lions, in the golden
afternoon, the golden afternoon.
There are dog and caterpillars and a
copper centipede, where the lazy
daisies love the very peaceful life
they lead... You can learn a lot of
things from the flowers, for especially
in the month of June. There’s a wealth
of happiness and romance, all in the
golden afternoon. ... All in the golden
afternoon, the golden afternoon...

How do you get to Wonderland
Over the hill or underland
Or just behind a tree
When clouds go rolling by
They roll away and leave the sky
Where is the land behind the eye
People cannot see
Where can you see
Where do the stars go
Where is the crescent moon
They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon
Alice in Wonderland
Where is the path to Wonderland
Over the hill or here or there
Trippin' out
Spinnin' around
I'm underground
I fell down
I fell do-ay-ay-own
I'm freakin' out
Where am I now?
Upside down and I can't stop me now
I can't stop me no-oo-oo-ow
Ohhhhh-ohhhh
I-I-I-I I'll get by
I-I-I-I I'll survive
When the worlds crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I-I-I-I I won't cry
I found myself in Wonderland
Get back on my feet again
Is this real?
Is this pretend?
I'll take a stand until the end
When the worlds crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
When the worlds crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I-I-I-I I'll get by
I-I-I-I I'll survive
When the worlds crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I’ll tell thee everything I can;
There’s little to relate.
I saw an aged aged man,
A-sitting on agate.
‘Who are you, aged man?’ I said.
‘And how is it you live?’
And his answer trickled through my head
Like water through a sieve.
He said, ‘I look for butterflies
That sleep among the wheat:
I make them into mutton-pies,
And sell them in the street.
I sell them unto men’ he said,
‘Who sail on stormy seas;
And that’s the way I get my bread-
A trifle, if you please.’
But I was thinking of a plan
To dye one’s whiskers green,
And always use so large a fan
That they could not be seen.
So, having no reply to give
To what the old man said,
I cried, ‘Come, tell me how you live!’
And thumped him on the head.
His accents mild took up the tale:
He said, ‘I go my ways,
And when I find a mountain-rill,
I set it in a blaze;
And thence they make a stuff they call
Rowland’s Macassar Oil-
Yet twopence-halfpenny is all
They give me for my toil.’
But I was thinking of a way
To feed oneself on batter,
And so go on from day to day
Getting a little fatter.
I shook him well from side to side,
Until his face was blue:
‘Come, tell me how you live,’ I cried,
‘And what it is you do!’
He said: ‘I hunt for haddocks’ eyes
Among the heather bright,
And work them into waistcoat-buttons
In the silent night.
And these I do not sell for gold
Or coin of silvery shine,
But for a copper halfpenny,
And that will purchase nine.
I sometimes dig for buttered rolls,
Or set limed twigs for crabs;
I sometimes search the grassy knolls
For wheels of Hansome-cabs.
And that’s the way’ (he gave a wink)
‘By which I get my wealth-
And very gladly will I drink
Your Honour’s noble health.’
I heard him then, for I had just
Completed my design
To keep the Menai bridge from rust
By boiling it in wine.
I thanked him much for telling me
The way he got his wealth,
But chiefly for his wish that he
Might drink my noble health.
And now, if e’er by chance I put
My fingers into glue,
Or madly squeeze a right-hand foot
Into a left-hand shoe,
Or if I drop upon my toe
A very heavy weight,
I weep, for it reminds me so
Of that old man I used to know-
Whose look was mild, whose speech was slow,
Whose hair was whiter than the snow,
Whose face was very like a crow,
With eyes like cinders, all aglow,
Who seemed distracted with his woe,
Who rocked his body to and fro,
And muttered mumblingly and low,
As if his mouth were full of dough,
Who snorted like a buffalo-
That summer evening long ago
A very merry
Unbirthday to you,

I'm late, I'm late for
A very important date.
No time to say hello, good-bye,
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late and when I wave,
I lose the time I save.
My fuzzy ears and whiskers
Took me too mych time to shave.
I run and then I hop, hop, hop,
I wish that I could fly.
There's danger if I dare to
Stop and here's a reason why:
I'm over-due, I'm in a rabbit stew.
Can't even say good-bye,
How d'ye
Do and
Shake hands
Shake hands,
Shake hands
How d'ye do
And shake
Hands state your

You are old, Father William, the young man said,
And your hair has become very white
And yet you incessantly stand on your head,
Do you think at your age it is right?
In my youth, Father William replied to his son,
I feared it might injure my brain
But now that I'm perfectly sure I have none
Why do it again and again.
You are old, said the youth, one would hardly suppose
That your eyes was as steady as ever
Yet you balance an eel on the end of your nose
What made you so awfully clever?
I have answered your questions and that is enough,
Said his father, don't give yourself airs
Do you think I can listen all day to such stuff?
(Im Inneren des Festsaals)
‘Do you know, I’ve had such a quantity of poetry
Repeated to me to-day,’
Alice began, [...] ‘and it’s a very curious thing,
I think - every poem was
about fishes in some way.
Do you know why they’re so fond of fishes,
all about here?’
She spoke to the Red Queen,
Whose answer was a little wide of the mark.
‘As to fishes,’ she said [...],
‘Her White Majesty knows a lovely riddle - all in poetry -
All about fishes. Shall she repeat it?’
[...] ‘Please do,’ Alice said very politely.
The White Queen laughed with delight,
And stroked Alice’s cheek.
Speak roughly to your little boy and beat him when he sneezes,
He only does it to annoy because he knows it teases.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
He only does it to annoy because he knows it teases.
I speak severely to my boy, I beat him when he sneezes
For he can thoroughly enjoy the pepper when he pleases.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Then fill up the glasses as quick as you can,
And sprinkle the table with buttons and bran,
Put cats in the Coffee and mice in the tea
And welcome Queen Alice with thirty times three.
Put cats in the Coffee and mice in the tea
And welcome Queen Alice with thirty times three.
Then put in the glasses molasses and ink
Or anything else that is pleasant to drink,
Mix sand with the cider and wool with the wine
And welcome Queen Alice with ninety times nine,
Mix sand with the cider and wool with the wine

Who's been painting my roses red?
Who's been painting my roses red?
Who dares to paint the vulgar paint
The royal flower bed
For painting my roses red
Someone will lose his head
They're going to lose their heads
For painting the roses red
It serves them right
They planted white
But roses should be red
Oh, ho ho
Oh, we'll smoke the blighter out
We'll put the beast to rout
Some kindling, just a stick or two
Ah, this bit of rubbish ought to do
We'll smoke the blighter out!
We'll smoke the monster out!
We'll roast the blighter's toes
We'll toast the bounder's nose
Just fetch that gate
We'll make it clear
That monsters aren't welcome here!
Without a single doubt
We'll smoke the monster out!
I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
That explains the trouble that I'm always in,
Be patient, is very good advice,
But the waiting makes me curious,
And I'd love the change,
Should something strange begin,
Well I went along my merry way,
And I never stopped to reason,
I should have know there'd be a price to pay,
Someday...someday,
I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?

Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee agreed to have a battle
For Tweedle Dum said Tweedle Dee had spoiled his nice new rattle;
Just then, down flew a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar barrel
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.

‘You are sad,’ the Knight said in an anxious tone:
‘let me sing you a song to comfort you.’
‘Is it very long?’ Alice asked, for she had
Heard a good deal of poetry that day.
‘It’s long,’ said the Knight, ‘but it’s very, very beautiful.
Everybody that hears me sing it -
Either it brings the tears into their eyes or else-’
‘Or else what?’ said Alice, for the
Knight had made a sudden pause.

sich erfüllt hat, unterhält sich mit der weißen und

The White Queen gave a deep sigh,
And laid her head on Alice’s shoulder,
‘I am so sleepy!’ she moaned.
‘She’s tired, poor thing!’ said the Red Queen.
‘Smooth her hair - lend her your nightcap -
And sing her a soothing lullaby.’
‘I haven’t got a nightcap with me;’
Said Alice, as she tried to obey the first direction:
‘And I don’t know any soothing lullabies.’
‘I must do it myself, then,’
The walrus and the carpenter
Were walking cross the land
The beach was wide from side to side
But much to full of sand
"Mr Walrus," said the carpenter,
"My brain begins to perk
We'll sweep this clear and in a year
If you don't mind the work."
"The time has come," the walrus said,
"To talk of other things
Of shoes and ships and sealing wax
Of cabagges and kings
And while the see is boiling hot
And wheather pigs have wings
Kaloo Kalay no work today
We're cabbages and kings"
Oysters, come and walk with us
The day is warm and bright
A pleasent walk
A pleasent talk
Would be a shear delight
(Yes and perhaps if we get hungery on the way
We coul stop and ah, have a bite!!)
But mother oyster winked her eye
And shook her weary head
She new too well it was much to soon
To leave her oyster bed
"The sea is nice
Take my advice
And stay right here" mom said
The time has come my little friends
To talk of other things
Of shoes and ships and sealing wax
Of cabbagges and kings
And while the sea is boiling hot
And wheather pigs have wings
Kaloo Kalay come run away
With the cabbagges and kings
Now ah, let me see
Ah!! A loaf of bread is what we cheerly need
(And how about some pepper, salt and vinagar?)
Ah yes yes of course of course
Now oysters dear, if you are ready
We shall begin the feed
(FEED!!)
Oh yes ah, the time has come my little friends
To talk of food and things
(Of pepper corns and mustard seeds
And other seasonings
We'll mix 'em all together
In a sauce that's made for kings
Kaloo Kalay we'll eat today
Like cabbagges and kings!!)
I, I wait for you I, oh excuse me
I deeply simplisize
For I've enjoyed you company
Oh much more than you realize
"Little oysters, little oysters??"
But answer there came none
And this was scarcly all because
They'ed been eaten
Every-one
THE TIME HAS COME!!!!
Were cabbagges
And kings!!!!
Statistics prove, prove that you've one birthday,
one birthday ev'ry year.
But there are three
hundred and sixty four
unbirthdays.
That is why we're gathered here to cheer.
A very merry unbirthday to you, to you.
A very merry unbirthday to you,
It's great to drink to someone and
I guess that you will do.
Oh, a sailor's life is
The life for me
How I love to sail o'er
The bounding sea
And I never, never,
Ever do a thing about the weather
For the weather never
Ever does a thing for me!

Tiddle-ee-um pom pom
Twas Brillig and the slithy Toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe,
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the momeraths outgrabe.
Beware the Jabberwock, my son,
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jub-jub bird and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!
He took his vorpal sword in hand,
Long time the maxnome foe he sought,
So rested he by the Tum Tum Tree
And stood a while in thought.
And then in uffish thought he stood
The Jabberwock with eyes of flame
Came whiffling thru the tulgey wood
And burbled as it came!
One two one two, and thru and thru
the vorpal blade went snicker snak!
He left it dead and with its head he went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms! My beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Callooh, Callay!" He chortled in his joy.

‘First the fish must be caught.’
That is easy: a baby I think could have caught it.
‘Next, the fish must be bought.’
That is easy: a penny, I think, would have bought it.
‘Now cook me the fish!’
That is easy, and will not take more
than a minute.
‘Let it lie in a dish!’
That is easy, because it already is in it.
‘Bring it here! Let me sup!’
It is easy to set such a dish on the table.
‘Take the dish-cover up!’
Ah, that is so hard that I fear I’m unable!
For it holds like a glue-
Holds the lid to the dish, while it lies in the middle:
Which is easiest to do,
Forward, backward, inward, outward
Come and join the chase
Nothing could be drier
Than a jolly caucus race
Backward, forward, outward, inward
Bottom to the top
Never a beginning,
There can never be a stop
To skipping, hopping, tripping fancy free and gay
Started it tomorrow
But will finish yesterday
'Round and 'round and 'round we go
Until forevermore
For once we were behind
But now we find we are be-
Foreward, backward, inward, outward
Come and joing hte chase
Nothing could be drier
Hush-a-bye lady in Alice's lap
Till the feast's ready we've time for a nap
When the feast's over we'll go to the ball,

And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers

All the flowers
Would have very extra special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own
There'd be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds
Within that world of my own
I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
In the room of silent dreams
I´ve lost the light of life
'Now cold darkness embraces me
I´m blinded by my pain
Awoke in empty halls
While shadows where dancing on the walls
I try to grip the morning light
But there´s just the silver gleam of a freezy night
A strange call pours into my head
Whispering through the darkness of my soul
Speaking softly and clear
Coming from a neverseen place
I have to leave this empty hall
I have to follow my inner call
The walls close in it´s cold inside
No doors, no windows no single light
Hiding behind raving tears
The voice spoke to me again and took away my fear:
"This night will be black
So wait for the moonrise
It will be the key for your escape
But you will always be caught in his silver light."
I have to leave this empty hall…
On and on colours die
On and on the nightwind cries
On and on in a starfilled sea
A silver tear will shine on me
Hush-a-by lady, in Alice’s lap!
Til the feast’s ready we’ve time for a nap:
When the feasts over, we’ll go to the ball-
Red Queen, and White Queen, and Alice, and all!
(‘And now you know the words,’ she added,
as she put her head down on Alice’s other shoulder,
‘just sing it through to me. I’m getting sleepy, too.’
In another moment both Queens were fast asleep,
and snoring loud.
At this moment the door was flung open, and a shrill voice was heard singing:)
To the Looking-Glass world it was Alice that said
‘I’ve a sceptre in hand, I’ve a crown on my head;
Let the Looking-Glass creatures, whatever they be,
Come and dine with the Red Qeen, the White Queen, and me!’
(And hundreds of voices joined in the chorus:)
Then fill up the glasses as quick as you can,
And sprinkle the table with buttons and bran:
Put cats in the coffee, and mice in the tea-
And welcome Queen Alice
with thirty-times-three!
(Alice thought to herself, ‘Thirty times three makes ninety.
I wonder if any one’s counting?’ In a minute there was silence again,
and the same shrill voice sang another verse:)
‘O Looking-Glass creatures,’ quoth Alice, ‘draw near!
‘Tis an honour to see me, a favor to hear:
‘Tis a privilege high to have dinner and tea
Along with the Red Queen, the White Queen and me!’
(Then came the chorus again:)
Then fill up the glasses with treacle and inc,
Or anything else that is pleasant to drink;
Mix sand with the cider, and wool with the wine-
And welcome Queen Alice
with ninety-times-nine!
‘Ninety-times-nine!’ Alice repeated in despair.
Child of the pure unclouded brow
And dreaming eyes of wonder!
Though time be fleet, and I and thou
Are half a life asunder,
Thy loving smile will surely hail
The lovegift of a fairy-tale.
I have not seen thy sunny face,
Nor heard thy silver laughter;
No thought of me shall find a place
In thy young life’s hereafter-
Enough that now thou wilt not fail
To listen to my fairy-tale.
A tale begun in other days,
When summer suns were glowing-
A simple chime, that served to time
The rhythm of our rowing-
Whose echoes live in memory yet,
Though envious years would say ‘forget’.
Come, hearken then, ere voice of dread,
With bitter tidings laden,
Shall summon to unwelcome bed
A melancholy maiden!
We are but older children, dear,
Who fret to find our bedtime near.
Without, the frost, the blinding snow,
The stormwind’s moody madness-
Within, the firelight’s ruddy glow
And childhoods nest of gladness.
The magic words shall hold thee fast:
Thou shalt not heed the raving blast.
And though the shadow of a sigh
May tremble through the story,
For `happy summer days´ gone by,
And vanish’d summer glory-
It shall not touch with breath of bale
'You are old Father William,'
The young man said
'And your hair has
Become very white
And yet you insistantly
Stand on your head
Do you think that your age is right, is right
Do you think that your age is right?'
'Well, in me you,'
Father William replied to his son
is it for yourself? the way you talk
explanations were never found
and it’s so untrue, all you say, when we’re alone
i couldn’t be like you, i never tried, i never would
change your mind, don’t let me down
i’m so sorry, my tears are falling, every time i hear from you
i’m so angry, my mind tells me, that in the end, there’s nothing new
i remember things we used to do
you know that just like you, i miss it too, i'm missing you
change your mind, don’t let me down
i’m so sorry, my tears are falling, every time i hear from you
"Will you walk a little faster?" Said a whiting to a snail
There's a porpoise close behind us
And he's treading on my tail.
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance.
They are waiting on the shingle.
Will you come and join the dance.
Will you, won't you,
Will you, won't you,
join the dance?
Will you, won't you,
Will you, won't you,
Girl stuck on the side of a street she said
Why is everyone crossing here she said
There's gotta be somewhere else
Somewhere where people don't shoot each other
Girl doesn't like watching TV much
She's coming from somewhere else
Somewhere where gravitiy doesn't stop people
All that I hear
Fills me with fear
For your protection
I fear what you do
And you always remind me of her
And you run when you feel insecure
And you always remind me of her
And you're lost in your own wonderland
Girl lives in a country house she's got
White rabbits to chase the spiders out
She'll turn into someone else
All it would take is what's in her bottle
And all that I hear
Fills me with fear
But that's your protection
I fear what you do
Yes I fear you do
And you always remind me of her
And you run when you feel insecure
And you always remind me of her
And you're lost in your own wonderland
I fear what you do
Yes I fear you do
And you always remind me of her
And you run when you feel insecure
And you always remind me of her
And you're lost in your own wonderland
I fear what you do
[Verse 1:]
Yo I was, raised on a seperate side of the track in a land where the wild things roam,
Open up my closet see a tall leaf growin, pick a leaf off of the stem take it all to the dome,
Callin it, the Alice in Wonderland, spiralin down the medium better known as time I'm stumblin,
Come back to my senses from the sounds of thunderin, trees talkin to me wonderin if I'll ever come again,
Every single day until I'm seein the sun again,
Starin at the ripples skippin rocks in the pond again,
Stimulatin every single cell while I'm ponderin,
And the green leaves are fallin and shrivelin like the Summer end
What shall I do, where do I go
I want the fumes in put the towel under the door,
I'm feelin the dro, puff it in and releasin the smoke,
It's not enough for me, I want it if u got it fa sho,
There are, things talkin to me mommy I swear
I'm seein figures in the dark get up and nobodys there
Intangible shadows are fucking with me reaching for nuthin,
So I take a hit of this Alice now I'm hopin for somethin
Fuck all the puffin, elmer it up get to the huffin,
Treat it like christmas turkeys open up and get to the stuffin,
See if I'm bluffin, I'm ready to go to the moon,
I'll do whatever whenever promise it'll get me there soon,
[Chorus:]
I'm lost in my own mind, where do I go,
I swear This wonderland's not what I used to know,
Wonderland (blisseded up feel the smoke run my hands,
Wonderland (twisted up, sip it chop it if you in)
Wonderland (Sit back let me how show u how it begin)
Wonderland (where my mind I think I lost in the end)
[Verse 2:]
Take me to the twilight zone, no lights on,
At the altitude where u be seein all the kites flown, YUP
Family concerned and convinced that my mind gone,
And they right, last night first class flights gone, HEY
Mommy why the fuck the flowypier gotta mouth now,
Conversatin why I'm layin on the ground now,
About face told me to get out now
See the revolution of tomorrow in the clouds now,
So far gone, but I'm not Drizzy,
Cleveland's own but I'm not Bizzy,
Nope no bone well then who is he?
I don't even know anymore I swear I done went crazy (BAHH)
All this talk about the life and the ice in the right hands could get u the dream and a nice tan
But they don't say is the price is ya life plus a slice of ya soul as man and ya right hand,
21 as long the cards set right,
Drop on my saliva gave my card deck life,
Queen of hearts tryna take away my best type,
The Ace of Spade make a muthafucka bet right,
Creepy crawlers tryna sneak up gimme bed bites,
Hide under the cover keep intruders out my bed life,
Hug the pillow keep it tucked under my head tight,
So the toothfairy cannot get up in my head, night
Boy I like you,
Kinda much more than like you
and I'm really really really gonna try to
keep it tucked beneath my tongue
you taste like chocolate
put me in your pocket
& yeah I wanna get your picture in my locket
keep you tucked beneath my shirt
Something here, you
got to see, come fill my curiosity
Alice in wonderland
love is calling,
I know why they call it falling
tell me you'll you understand
don't be stalling,
I know why they call it falling
So I waited,
so long it was overrated
but you never ever ever really dated
got me working for your love,
what a turn on.
trying to get my flirt on
just wait until you see me with a skirt on
Would you like to catch a movie sometime,
Everything I thought I knew,
keeps changing when I look at you
Alice in wonderland
love is calling,
I know why they call it falling
tell me you'll understand
don't be stalling,
I know why they call it falling
Cause you're leaving me with
left over smiles
and it's been a while
so I'm going down
oh, back into a time
it's Alice in wonderland
love is calling,
I know why they call it falling
baby come take my hand
don't be stalling,
I know why they call it falling
I'm Alice in Wonderland
and love is calling
I know why they call it falling
baby come take my hand
don't be stalling,
Alice, pretty little Alice
Pretty little Alice in Wonderland
Alice in wonderland
Won't you take me by the hand
And lead me to your wonderland of love
I took one look at you
And that was all I had to do
Alice, you're the girl I'm dreamin of
Tweedle dum, tweedle dee
You have made my life a fantasy
You don't know what you're doin to me
My heart goes pitter patter cause I'm mad as a hatter for
Alice my little girl
There is no other in this whole wide world
Take me by the hand, tell me you understand
Alice, Alice in wonderland
Tweedle dum, tweedle dee
You have made my life a fantasy
You don't know what you're doin to me
My heart goes pitter patter cause I'm mad as a hatter for
Alice my little girl
There is no other in this whole wide world
Take me by the hand, tell me you understand
Alice, Alice in wonderland
Oh Alice, pretty little Alice
SOUNDTRACK LYRICS
Alice in Wonderland
Music: Sammy Fain Lyrics: Bob Hilliard
Alice in Wonderland
How do you get to Wonderland
Over the hill or underland
Or just behind a tree
When clouds go rolling by
They roll away and leave the sky
Where is the land behind the eye
People cannot see
Where can you see
Where do the stars go
Where is the crescent moon
They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon
Alice in Wonderland
Where is the path to Wonderland
Over the hill or here or there
I wonder where
An earthquake's dancing in my mind
I wonder why sometimes I'm blind
there's an answer I can't find
Fault of mushrooms, yes, I'm sure
now I feel a little foolish
small or big, there is no cure
Alice in Wonderland
Heroin left me without friends
'cause I'm Alice in Neverland
I'm waiting for a beautiful end
A strange man with a queer hat
always provides me with some crack
then I can see a pink-blue cat
A white rabbit runs away
I think he's looking for cocaine:
sweet relief for his mad brain
Alice in Wonderland
Heroin left me without friends
'cause I'm Alice in Neverland
Me am the wizard from the magic shroom's land yo, and I
get ya all that shit.
What's up little Alice in Wonderland you bitch,
we are coming and you can suck the dick,
work it hard, cause I know what's up when I call my dead
Alice in Wonderland
How do you get to Wonderland
Over the hill or underland
Or just behind the tree
When clouds go rolling by
They roll away and leave the sky
Where is the land beyond the eye
That people cannot see
Where can it be
Where do stars go
Where is the crescent moon
They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon
Alice in Wonderland
Where is the path to Wonderland
Over the hill or here or there
