Alice In Wonderland
i must remember alice.
and when i remember alice,
i must again remember
the wonderland: where
rabbits talk and caterpillars
smoke where Humpty Dumpty
always has a story to tell
where politics become
but a fantasy, where riddles
come like fables and
parables. after all these
imaginings, i am lost
and then, i forget alice.

Wonderland
Cant you see
Love and affection
When its put
In you direction
Wrapped in your mysterious wonderland
No fast car
Can make you grow up
Gentlemen
You think youve sewn up
Locked in your wonderful wonderland
No dark horse like me can cramp all of your style
Too plain and simple I am for your file
Chorus: one day you will break out of your spell
And some day you will want me for your own
And Ill say welcome to reality
All this talk
Of late-night parties
Flirting with the lower gentry
Lost in your magical wonderland
Out of depth
Out of class
Phase of your life
Will come to pass
Caught in this tragical wonderland
All of the riches that shine will turn sour
Each moment you slip you will bring near the hour
Chorus
Wrapped in your mysterious wonderland
Caught in your superficial
Nonexistant
Fairy-story
Wonderland

Suicide The Right Way
Where do you stay
When there's no one to hear your cries
You know that angels they betray
Hope breathes one last time
It's suicide the right way
Where do you run
When there's no one to see you fall
Nevermore will you live to see another day
A bittersweet melody whispers
It's suicide the right way
Welcome to Wonderland, dear Alice
I'm the voice inside your head
Where do you hide
When the blood begins to rain
Living life like a dream
There's nothing left to remain
It's suicide the right way
I'm killing you
You're killing me too
Welcome to Wonderland, dear Alice
I'm the voice inside your head

Boogie Wonderland
Jon lind & allee willis
Dance boogie wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland
Midnight creeps so slowly into hearts,
Of men who need more than they get
Daylight deals a bad hand,
To a woman that has laid to many bets
The mirror stares you in the face and says
Baby, uh uh it dont work
You say your prayers through you dont care
You dance and shake the hurt
Dance boogie wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland
Sound fly through the night
I chase my vinyl drams to boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland
I find romance when I start to dance in boogie wonderland
All the love in the world cant be gone
All the need to be loved cant be wrong
All the records are playing
And my heart keeps saying
Boogie wonderland, wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland
All the love in the world cant be gone
All the need to be loved cant be wrong
All the records are playing
And my heart keeps saying
Boogie wonderland, wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland
Dance boogie wonderland

RETURN TO WONDERLAND...by Talile Ali
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
I SHOULD HAVE CHANGED MY PLANS
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
I MET A YOUNG GIRL
AS CUTE AS SHE COULD BE
BRIGHTER THAN A BUTTON
GOT THE BEST OF ME
MAMA WAS A HOE THOUGH
MESSED AROUND A LOT
NEVER KNEW HER REAL DAD
SEX IS ALL SHE GOT
HER MOM LIKED HER PLAYIN'
BABY LEARNED REALLY WELL
BETTER TO DO SOMEONE
THAN LIVE IN THIS HELL
SHE SWORE THAT SHE'D NEVER
SUBMIT HER KIDS TO THIS
SO A BOY FROM THE SUBURBS
GOT TO GRANT THAT WISH
DOESN'T MATTER IF HE LOVED HER
JUST AN ORNAMENT
BOTH WANTED THEIR ITEMS
BEFORE THEIR LIVES WERE SPENT
SO SHE'S OUT GIVEN HEAD NOW
TO ANYONE WHO WILL
SAY A NICE WORD TO HER
SO THEY CAN COP A FEEL
HER BABE'S ARE YOUNG GIRLS NOW
THEY'RE OUT DOIN WHO KNOWS WHO
IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR MOM THEN
THESE BOY'S WILL HAVE TO DO
I CAN'T SAY THAT I'M HAPPY
THE WAY THAT THINGS TURNED OUT
MY FRIEND IS TRAPPED IN THIS HELL
SEEMS THAT THERE'S NO WAY OUT
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE WHORING
OR SEX TO MAKE A SCORE
IT'S ALL ABOUT EXISTING
LIVING THIS LIFE ON THESE SHORES
SO AS THIS ENDS SO SOFTLY
I HOPE IT HELPS A FEW
TO UNDERSTAND SOME REASONS
WOMEN DO THE THINGS THEY DO
SOMETIMES THERE'S A STORY
WHY SOME WOMEN ARE SO KEEN
ON BEING DRAWN TO SLEAZY
AND TREATED OBSCENE BY MEN
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
TIME FOR A CHANGE OF PLANS
RETURN TO WONDERLAND

I have a story that’ll
I have a story that’ll
bury Tiger Woods
under 6 feet of sand.
It’s the wishful thinking
of any golfer
to eagle their balls
in Alice’s hole.
But I wonder if anybody
wants their balls
to shrink fast enough
in the time they fly
from the golfing club
to birdie Wonderland.

Family Fantasy: The Magician of Reason
You were right, when you met them, the Queen of Hearts
and the Prince in disguise; you saw that the web she had
woven professing deep faith and love for humankind, with
so-called insight; was just an illusion, Alice believed her
of course, believing herself to be as bad as the Prince called
a beast by her mom, who proclaimed herself a beautiful
enchantress set on redemption, she declared both child and
man demon-possessed; she wove the most scary, irrational,
illogical, mind-boggling fantasy about his Princely self as a
beast and his daughter, Alice-in-Wonderland, as a minion of
hell; presenting her mother, Cinderella, as a nasty old hag
and using her as a drudge, Alice used to sink in the sludge
of the Queen of Heart’s self-righteous rejection - until
the Magician of Reason opened her eyes by giving her the
elixir of reality; taught her to observe faithfully – that brought
Alice more joy than the Queen’s wicked fantasies…

Shape-Change
A conspiracy of mites, dust and allergy makes life
a misery – I am either very happy outside wearing
magical sandals or sitting in the depths of despair
in an air-conditioned office where I shape-change
into Quasimodo, hunchback, gnarled fingers, warts –
oh wait, that’s witches, I also become the Gingerbread
Witch of Hansel and Gretel, it’s why I identify with Alice
in Wonderland, eating anything marked ‘eat me’
breathing pollen, house-mites and dust-laden air
changes me from hour to hour, I can only be a
dancing fairy outside – any building changes me
into a variety of horror story characters - though
I don’t mind being a vampire or witch as long as
I can fly, but changing into Quasimodo
makes me want to cry …

The Way To Wonderland
Who knows the way to wonderland?
Oh, I know, Oh, I know!
Trotty-te-trot on mama's knee,
Then over the billows of sleepy sea,
Down through the straits of by-lo,
Oh, who but mama could understand
The ways that lead to wonderland.
Now we are off to wonderland,
You and I, you and I,
Into the harbor of happy dreams,
Oh how misty and fair it seems,
Rock, rock a-by;
Ah! no one but mama could understand
The way that leads to wonderland
Now we will anchor at wonderland.
Slow-slow-slow-slow.
The magic place where angels keep
Dreams for babies who fall to sleep,
Down we go, down we go,
Oh, who but mama could understand
How to anchor at wonderland.

Winter Wonderland
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,we're happy tonight
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song as we go along
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say "Are you married?"
We'll say "No man,
But you can do the job when you're in town."
Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we made
Walkin' in a winter wonderland
Were walkin' in a winter wonderland
Yea, walkin' in a winter wonderland

My Wonderland
oh in my wonderland
the clouds r cotton candy
the rivers r full of chocolate syrup
and there's a chocolate waterfall
all in my wonderland
the trees r hung with licorice and candy canes
the paths r lined with gum drops
there r u 10 ft tall lolipops!
as i dream in my wonderland
al the candy and sweets
i wake up in math class
were Mr. Huff is dicussing calcuis
i wish i was in my wonderland

Winter Wonderland
Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend he is Parson Brown
He'll say: Are you married?
We'll say: No man
But you can do the job
When you're in town
Later on
We'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down
When it snows
Ain't it thrilling
Though your nose gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play
The Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland
Yeah we're walking in a winter
Yeah we're walking in a winter
We're walking in a winter wonderland

I explained that most great works of the imagination were meant to make you feel like a stranger in your own home. The best fiction always forced us to question what we took for granted. It questioned traditions and expectations when they seemed too immutable. I told my students I wanted them in their readings to consider in what ways these works unsettled them, made them a little uneasy, made them look around and consider the world, like Alice in Wonderland, through different eyes.
