Original Cast of Alice By Heart
Down the Hole
[ALICE SPENCER]
Just some summer book
God, and it was hot too
Who knew where to look
What to do, and not do
[ALFRED]
Now some rabbit broods
Like there’s no tomorrow
[ALICE SPENCER]
How can you refuse
When I tell you follow?
[ALICE SPENCER & ALFRED]
And now we’re down the hole
And really on a roll
And something on the shelves
Pulled something out ourselves
[ALFRED]
Down and down we fall
Now, where have we wandered
Pictures, books, and all
Tumbling from the cupboard
[HAROLD/MAD HATTER]
Hit the ground below
Everything’s so tiny
[ALFRED]
Now, where did it go
The world I left behind me
[ALL]
And now we’re down the hole
And really on a roll
[NIGEL/EAGLET]
God knows where we're at
[TABATHA/CHESHIRE PUSS]
Should have brought the cat
[ALL]
And now we’re down the hole
And coming from the soul
[ANGUS/CATERPILLAR]
The walls are all so tall
[CLARISSA/CANARY]
There too small for the hall
[ALFRED]
These hands are not my hands
So, is this wonderland?
[ALICE SPENCER]
No rabbit can begin to know the state I’m in
[DR. BUTRIDGE/KING OF HEARTS]
You eat a marble cake
Your heart begins to ache
[RED CROSS NURSE/QUEEN OF HEARTS]
But once you start to eat
You're too tall for your feet
[DODGY/DUCHESS]
The bottle tells you "drink."
You never stop to think
[ALL]
How quickly you will shrink
(And you will shrink)
The more and more you drink
[ALICE]
But, now you’re down the hole
[ALL]
Down and down the hole
Now you’re down the hole
And now you’re down the hole
And calling from the soul
What happens if I can’t
Get out of wonderland
[ALICE & ALFRED/WHITE RABBIT]
Now we’re down the hole
