Guy Pearson - Hey! Alice! Lyrics

Let me tell you a story
About a girl, a little hard to ignore she told me
She would sail the world across the seven seas
She had fairy dust in her eyes
I knew that she was happy to spend the night
Chasing after a rabbit who's always running through her dreams
They looked on in confusion
They said she's got to be delusional
The only explanation I can find
Is she's high as a kite
Or maybe she's lost her mind
Hey, Alice! I want to believe
There's a madman underneath the old oak tree
Selling hats to a cat with the sharpest teeth
And what do you mean when you say
You found a land of wonderful things
And who are the twins? You know that work of the queen
Cuz when you go to sleep you say the strangest things
She said, once you've been, you'll realize
The world around us is full of lies
Take it back, take a chance, or take a dive with me
He said, how do you cope when skies are grey
She said, the plants wouldn't grow, no, if it didn't rain
And just like that, well, he started to believe
Believe in a word in the back of your mind
The one that never left your bedside
And kept your dream alive
Cuz where there's snow, you know, it's bound to get cold
But the climb is just the start of every journey to the top
Or so I'm told
Hey, Alice! I want to believe
There's a madman underneath the old oak tree
Selling hats to a cat with the sharpest teeth
And what do you mean when you say
You found a land of wonderful things
And who are the twins? You know that work of the queen
Cuz when you go to sleep you say the strangest things
Hey, Alice!
Hey, Alice!
Hey, Alice!
What do you mean when you say?
Hey, Alice!
Hey, Alice!
Hey, Alice!
What do you mean when you say?
