Lewis Carroll – Alice in Wonderland

Filled with desire, I want to be free
Want release from the clutches of my insanity
The further I run, the deeper I sink
Down into this rabbit hole to a world out of sync
White bunny running around the clock
God please tell me how to make this all stop
Eat me, drink me, ate her, drank him
Hey little mousey fancy going for a swim?
Run around aimlessly, trying to get dry
There’s never a winner in this race called life
Growing bigger, getting smaller, cakes and tea
All the frightened animals throwing rocks at me
Hi caterpillar, high caterpillar, smoking atop a shroom
Seeing the truth of everything, heading to his tomb
Pepper soup and sneezes, babies turning into swine
Cat points to a house of madness, can’t blame him for trying
Seen plenty of cats without smiles, never smiles without cats
Hares go crazy in March, all year the guy with the hats
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Nobody knows, no one’s up to the task
A rest-deprived dormouse trying to get a bit of sleep
Left in a hurry, this tea party is as stupid as can be
Flamingos and hedgehogs, white roses painted red
All used as playthings, off with his head!
Can’t execute a Cheshire when he’s only got a grin
Let Her Honor’s pet Gryphon take me for a spin
Mock Turtle’s sad though he’s got no sorrow
Was a real turtle in school, let’s discuss it tomorrow
Cause now it’s time for a strange dancing game
Mock Turtle’s about to sing, let’s leave cause he’s lame
Gryphon dragged me away, a trial’s about to start
Whoever stole the tarts of the Red Queen of Hearts?
The knave was accused, “not I”, said he
The whole trial was orchestrated, “there be no one but ye”
Suddenly started growing again, dormouse was displeased
Called up as a witness, then knocked over the jury
Dismissed from court because I was more than a mile high
Argued with the King and Queen, I refused to comply
“Off with her head”, she said the famous line
I called them a pack of cards, and with a hand, sent them all flying
Opened my eyes to find myself lying on the floor
Closed my eyes again, the madness returns once more
