Pool Of Tears

from We're All Mad Here by Ian Rutherford

/

lyrics

Was I right to be suspicious
of that currant cake
even though it was delicious
did it make
me nine feet tall –
My head on the roof
of the hall?

Dear oh dear!
everything is queer.

And I think I heard the rabbit
say the Duchess
will be savage
he dropped his fan
I watched
as he ran.
How long before
he finds
He left his fan
and gloves behind?

Dear oh dear -
it is all so queer.
I’m so tired
of being alone here.

I’ve cried so hard and long
because it has all gone wrong
The fan has made me small
and I can’t be sure at all
who I am, or what I feel
what to do, or what is real.

Dear oh dear,
everything is queer
now I’m
swimming in my tears.

There’s a pool of my tears
from when I was tall

and I’m not the only
one to fall.
And it’s crowded in here
with the Mouse and his fears,
a Duck and Dodo,
so it appears

A Duck and Dodo
so it appears
A Duck and Dodo
so it appears

I had hoped to explore
hoped to go
through the door
But my only choice now
is to swim for the shore.
How strange to be here
in a pool of my tears.
