about
Wonderland is a creepy, disjointed, and revealing place.
lyrics
Boredom hangs like fruit in a tree
Wait for white rabbits to rescue me
One makes you larger and one makes you small
As long as I don’t have to stay the same is all
Oh, Alice, say it aint true
The looking glass lies to you
The queen of hearts eats her duchess tarts
And I just want to go to bed
Cheshire cat never takes a nap
I wish that it was off with his head
I’m positive this is how we live
Our minds can get away from us
But the caterpillar with his smoke ring filler
Never does too much
Oh Alice say it aint true
The looking glass lies to you
Oh Alice say it aint true
This aint no wonderland without you
Wait for white rabbits to rescue me
One makes you larger and one makes you small
As long as I don’t have to stay the same is all
Oh, Alice, say it aint true
The looking glass lies to you
The queen of hearts eats her duchess tarts
And I just want to go to bed
Cheshire cat never takes a nap
I wish that it was off with his head
I’m positive this is how we live
Our minds can get away from us
But the caterpillar with his smoke ring filler
Never does too much
Oh Alice say it aint true
The looking glass lies to you
Oh Alice say it aint true
This aint no wonderland without you
