Songteksten Alice in Wonderland
Written by Bob Hilliard and Sammy Fain
Performed by chorus
Alice in Wonderland, how do
you get to Wonderland?
Over the hill or underland,
or just behind the tree?
When clouds go rolling by,
they roll away and leave the sky.
Where is the land beyond the eye,
the people can not see, where can it be?
Where do stars go, where is the
grass that's blue?
They must be somewhere in the
sunny afternoon.
Alice in Wonderland, where is
the path to Wonderland?
Over the hill or here or there,
I wonder where.

Cats and Rabbits, would reside in fancy
little houses, and be dressed in shoes
and hats and trousers. In a world of my
own. All the flowers would have very extra
special powers, they would sit and talk
to me for hours, when I'm lonely in a world
of my own. There'd be new birds, lots of
nice and friendly how-de-do birds, everyone
would have a dozen bluebirds, within that
world of my own. I could listen to a babbling
brook and here a song, that I could understand.
I keep wishing it could be that way, because
my world would be wonderland.

White Rabbit: I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date! No time to say hello, goodbye! I’m late, I’m late, I’m late! No, no, no, no, no, no, no, I’m overdue. I’m really in a stew. No time to say goodbye, hello! I’m late, I’m late, I’m late!

Oh, the sailor's life is the life for me,
how I love to sail on the bounding sea, and
I never never ever do a thing about the weather
never ever does a thing for me. Oh, a sailor's
life is a life for me. Tiddle um dum pom pom
dum de dee. And I never ne.. ahoy!

Forward, backwards, inward, outward,
come and join the chase! Nothing could
be drier than a jolly caucus race.
Forward, backwards, outward, inward,
bottom to the top, never a beginning
there can never be a stop to skipping,
hopping, tripping, fancy free, I started
it tommorrow and will finish yesterday.
Round and round and round we go, and dance
for evermore, once we were behind but
now we find we are be-forward, backwards,
inward, outward, come and join the chase!
Nothing could be drier than a jolly caucus-race.
For backwards...

The sun was shining on the sea, shining with
all his might, he did his very best to make
the billows full and bright. And this was odd,
because it was the middle of the night. The
Walrus and the Carpenter were walking close at
hand. The beach was white from side to side but
much too full of sand. ‘Mister Walrus’, said the
Carpenter: ‘My brain begins to burke. We’ll sweep
this clear in half a year, if you don't mind the
work.'
Dee & Dum: But mother Oyster winked her eye and
shook her heavy head. She knew too well this
was no time to leave her oyster bed.
Mother oyster: The sea is nice, take my advice, and stay right here.
Dee & Dum: Mom said.

First verse: You are old father William, the young man said and your hair has become very white. And yet you incessantly stand on your head, do you think at your age it is right, is right, do you think at your age it is right? Well, in me youth, father William replied to his son, I’d do it again and again and again and I’d done it again and again and again...

Dodo: Hi ho! Oh,we’ll smoke the blighter out. He‘ll put the beast to rout. Some kindling, a stick or two, all this bit of rubbish ought to do. We’ll smoke the blighter there out, we’ll smoke the monster out! Oh, we’ll roast the blighter's toes, we’ll toast the bounder's nose! Go fetch that gate, we’ll make it clear that monsters aren’t welcome here. Thank you! We’ll blow the thing there out, we’ll smoke the monster out! White Rabbit: We’ll smoke the monster out...

All flowers: Little bread-and-butterflies kiss the tulips, and
the sun is like a toy balloon. There are get up in the morning
glories, in the golden afternoon. There are dizzy daffodils on
the hillside, strings of violets are all in tune, Tiger lilies
love the dandy lions, in the golden afternoon, the golden
afternoon. There are dog and caterpillars and a copper centipede,
where the lazy daisies love the very peaceful life they lead...
You can learn a lot of things from the flowers, for especially in
the month of June. There’s a wealth of happiness and
romance, all in the golden afternoon. ... All in the golden
afternoon, the golden afternoon...
Alice: You can learn a lot of things from the flowers, for

happiness and romance, oh...

Caterpillar: A, e i o u, a e i o u, a e i o u, o, u e i o a, u
e i a, a e i o u..
Alice: how doth the little busy bee, improve each such
Caterpillar: Hmm! How doth the little crocodile improve his
shining tail. And pour the waters of the Nile, on every golden
scale. How cheer... how cheer... How cheerfully he seems to grin,
how neatly spreads his claws. And welcomes little fishes in, with
gently smiling jaws.

Card painters: Da dee dee da da da, Doodle de do, dee do dee
do, bum bum bum bum, Painting the roses red, we’re painting
the roses red, we cannot stop or waste a drop, so let the
painting spread. We’re painting the roses red, we’re
painting the roses red! Painting the roses red, a bitter tear we
shed, because we know they’ll seize to grow, in fact
they’ll soon be dead. Noooo! And yet we go ahead, painting
the roses red, red, red, red, red, red, red, red. Painting the
roses red, we’re painting the roses red...
Alice: Oh, pardon me, but mister Three, why must you paint them
red?
Card painters: Huh? Oh! Well, the fact is, miss: we planted the
white roses by mistake. And, the queen she likes them red. If she
saw what we said, she’d raise her voice and each of us would
quickly loose his head.
Alice: Goodness!
Card painters: Since this is that what we dread, we’re
painting the roses red!
Alice: Painting the roses red...
Alice & Card painters: We’re painting the roses red.
Don’t tell the queen what you have seen, or say that’s
what we said, what, we’re painting the roses red...
Alice: Yes, painting the roses red...
Card painters: Not pink, not green...
Alice: Not aqua-marine...
Alice & Card painters: We’re painting the roses red!
Cards: They’re going to loose their heads, for painting the
roses red, it serves them right, they planted white, the roses
should be red. Oh, they’re going to loose their head...

Alice: but I very seldom follow it. That explains the trouble
that I’m always in. Be patient is very good advice, but the
waiting makes me curious. And I'd love the change, should
something strange begin. Well, I went along my merry way, and I
never stopped to reason. I should have known there’d be a
price to pay, some day. Some day. I give myself very good advice,
but I very seldom follow it. Will I ever learn to do the things I
should?
Chorus: Should I ever learn to do the things I should
