Alice

Alice is small but her head is a world that is bigger than mine
Oh, I'd just get lost inside
She speaks so sweetly and she speaks so neatly
Her words are a puzzle that I can't understand
And I ask her to dinner
she replies that she's busy with going to a party
She says "You can come with me, if ya like"

I get there late and she's already there
I'm afraid to go inside, don't know what I'm gonna find in there
And I enter the room with the neon fumes
And the music is trance-y and the people are too

And Alice is there, sitting with Superman and God
And I know I don't belong but I sit down anyway

Oh I'm such a bore, when I speak all my words.
They don't come out right,
like they were in my head
Oh, what am I doing here, she's not the kind of girl for me
She's been down the rabbit hole, and I've been up here on my feet

And there's age in those eyes and she's been through it all
And she gets all her kicks from the things that I'll never know
