Alice lyrics

Alice pressed against the wall

So she can see the door

In case the laughing strangers crawl and

Crush the petals on the floor

Alice in her party dress

She thanks you kindly

So serene

She needs you like she needs her tranqs

To tell her that the world is clean

To promise her a definition

Tell her where the rain will fall

Tell her where the sun shines bright

And tell her she can have it all

Today

Pass the crystal spread the Tarot

In illusion comfort lies

The safest way the straight and narrow

No confusion no surprise

Alice in her party dressed to kill

She thanks you turns away

She needs you like she needs her pills

To tell that the world's OK

To promise her a definition

Tell her where the rain will fall

Tell her where the sun shines bright

And tell her she can have it all

Today

Today

Alice

Don't give it away

Nooooo
