Mad As a Hatter ~down With the Bloody Red Queen~
insipired by Alice In Wonderland
Tell me how did I get myself stuck in this dream
A dream I dream every night it seems
And every night is as strange as before.
Have I possibly gone mad?
This must be a dream
It is impossible for animals to talk
For cats to smile
And mice to walk.
I must have gone bonkers!
Oh dear, this is so confusing
Oh how could this be?
Everything is after me
Everyone is chasing me
Oh but wait this is all just a dream.
Everyone here is has simply gone daffy!
Oh look who’s this
This place of wonder has a queen
Oh dear, oh my
She is very mean
She’s feared rather than loved
Face burning blood red
As she’s screaming
“Off with his head”.
Now she is most defiantly mad.
Oh no, not good
The queen is after me
But why
Why now could this be
What did I do
What can I do
To stop her from beheading me?
Oh yes that’s it
I’ll twist the tables ‘round
And now
There’s no place for her to run
Oh it seems I have won
Her time as queen is done
Even her own army is gone.
But oh, I can’t
Not even this life I can end
But alone the rest of her life shell spend
Banished without a friend.
That would drive any person mad.
I have learned through this peculiar journey
To believe the impossible
Open up your mind
Open your heart as well
And soon you’ll find
Animals talking
Roses painted red
Careful now
Try not to loose your head
So dream your dreams
Wish upon a star
I may be mad as a hatter
But hey
The best people are.
