Alice pressed against the wall (live version is 'She stands pressed...') 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 needs her pills To tell that the world's okay 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
