Wonderland

from We're All Mad Here by Ian Rutherford

/

lyrics

If you should dream
of Wonderland
for a drowsy
Afternoon,

of a Hatter, a hare
and a pack of cards
and a salty tear
lagoon;

If you should dream
of a shifting shape
and a size that shrinks and
grows,

you may chase a rabbit
then help to change
the colour of
a rose.

If you should wake
on a river bank,
head in your sister’s
lap

and wonder at
the strange events
that can occupy a
nap;
occupy
a nap

then the tale you tell
will be one to share
as a wondrous source of
pleasure

That will endure
throughout the years
as a memory to
Treasure

On riverbank, on a drowsy afternoon
A book without pictures has little charm
and the sight of a rabbit with a watch and a vest
for some reason didn’t cause alarm

So much to see and under-stand
Crazy people – Wonderland
The fall was long, the hole was deep;
Who knows whether we wake or sleep?
Who knows whether we wake or sleep?
wake or sleep
