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, that people can not see, where can it be?
Where do stars go, where is the crescent moon?
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.
Sister: ...leaders, and had been of late much accustomed to usurpation and conquest. Edwin and Morcar, the earls of Mercia and Northumbria declared for him, and even Stigand... Alice!
Alice: Hmm...? Oh, I'm listening.
Sister: And even Stigand, the archbishop of Canterbury, agreed to meet with William and offer him the crown.
Alice: Hihihi!
Sister: William's conduct at first was mo....
Alice: Hihihi!
Sister: Alice...! Will you kindly pay attention to your history lesson?
Alice: I'm sorry, but how can one possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?
Sister: My dear child, there are a great many good books in this world without pictures.
Alice: In this world perhaps. But in my world, the books would be nothing but pictures.
Sister: Your world? Huh, what nonsense. Now...
Alice: Nonsense?
Sister: Once more. From the beginning.
Alice: That's it, Dinah! If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrariwise, what it is, it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?
Dinah: Meow!
Alice: In my world, you wouldn't say 'meow'. You'd say 'Yes, miss Alice'.
Dinah: Meow!
Alice: Oh, but you would! You'd be just like people, Dinah, and all the other animals too. Why, in my world... 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 hear a song, that I could understand. I keep wishing it could be that way, because my world would be a wonderland.
Dinah: Meow! Meow! Meow!
Alice: Oh Dinah! Its just a rabbit with a waistcoat... and a watch!
White Rabbit: Oh my fur and whiskers! I'm late, I'm late I'm late!
Alice: Now this is curious! What could a rabbit possibly be late for? Please, sir!
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!
Alice: It must be awfully important, like a party or something! Mister Rabbit! Wait!
White Rabbit: 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!
Alice: My, what a peculiar place to have a party.
Dinah: Meow!
Alice: You know, Dinah, we really shouldn't...uhh...uhh...be doing this... After all, we haven't been invited! And curiosity often leads to troubl – l – l – e – e – e! Goodbye, Dinah! Goodbye! ... Oh! Well, after this I shall think nothing of fa-... of falling downstairs! ... Oh! Ahhh... Oh, Goodness! What if I should fall right through the center of the earth... oh, and come out the other side, where people walk upside down. Oh, but that's silly. Nobody... oh! Oh, ha ha. Oh, mister Rabbit! Wait! Please! ... Curiouser and curiouser!
Alice: The white rabbit! Mister Rabbit! Mi- mister Rabbit!
White Rabbit: Oh, my goodness! I'm late! I'm late!
Alice: Oh, don't go away! I'll be right back!
White Rabbit: I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!
Alice: Mister Rabbit! Oh, mister Rabbit! Oh dear, I'm sure he came this way. Do you suppose he could be hiding? Hmmm... not here. I wonder... No, I suppose he must have... Oh!
Alice: Now I wonder who lives here...
White Rabbit: Mary Ann! Drat that girl. Where did she put 'em? Mary Ann!
Alice: The rabbit!
White Rabbit: Mary Ann! No use, can't wait, I'm awfully late, oh me oh my oh me oh my!
Alice: Excuse me sir, but- but I've been trying to...
White Rabbit: Why, Mary Ann! What are you doing out here?
Alice: Mary Ann?
White Rabbit: Don't just do something stand there! Uh... no no! Go go! Go get my gloves! I'm late!
Alice: But late for what? That's just what I...
White Rabbit: My gloves! At once, do you hear!
Alice: Goodness. I suppose I'll be taking orders from Dinah next. Hmmm, now let me see. If I were a rabbit, where would I keep my gloves? Oh! Thank you. Don't mind if I do. Hmhm. Hmhm. Hmhmhmhmhmhm. Hmhmhmhmhmhm-oeh! Oh no no, not again!
White Rabbit: Oh! Mary Ann! Now you see here, Mary Ann... Help! No! No! Help! Monsters! Help,
assistance!
Alice: Hrmm... hrmm... hrmm... dear!
White Rabbit: No, no, no, no! No time, no time, no time! Hello, goodbye! I'm late! I'm late!
Alice: The white rabbit!
White Rabbit: Oh, I'm so late! I'm so very very late!
Alice: The Queen!
Card painters: The Queen! ...
Queen: Cards, halt! Count off!
Cards: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, Jack.
Alice: The rabbit!
White Rabbit: He...he... her imperial highness, he... her grace, her excellency, her royal majesty, the Queen of Hearts! And the King...
A card (or perhaps Mickey Mouse?): Hurray!
Queen: Hum... Who's been painting my roses red? Who's been painting my roses red? Who dares to taint, with vulgar paint, the royal flower bed? For painting my roses red, someone will loose his head!
Three: Oh, no! Your majesty! Please, it's all his fault!
Two: Not me, your grace! The Ace, the Ace!
Queen: You?
Alice: No, Two!
Queen: The Deuce you say?
Two: Not me, the Three!
Queen: That's enough! Off with their heads!
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...
Queen: Silence!
Alice: Oh, please, please! They were only trying to...
Queen: And who is this?
King: Uh... well, well, well, now, eh... let me see, my dear. It certainly isn't a heart... do you suppose it's a club?
Queen: Why, it's a little girl.
Alice: Yes, and- and I was hoping...
Queen: Look up, speak nicely, and don't twiddle your fingers! Turn out your toes. Curtsey. Open your mouth a little wider, and always say 'yes, your majesty'!
Alice: Yes, your majesty!
Queen: Hmhmhmhm. Now, um, where do you come from, and where are you going?
Alice: Well, um, I'm trying to find my way home...
Queen: Your way? All ways here are my ways!
Alice: Well, yes, I know, but I was just thinking...
Queen: Curtsey while you're thinking, it saves time.
Alice: Yes, your majesty, but I was only going to ask...
Queen: I'll ask the questions! Do you play croquet?
Alice: Why, yes, your majesty.
Queen: Then let the game begin!
King: In your places, in your places, By order of the king! Hurry, hurry, hurry!
Queen: Shuffle deck! Cards cut! Deal cards! Cards, halt! ... Silence! Pfwfwfwfw! ... Off with his head!

Cheshire Cat: La la la da da dum... la la la hmm... I say, how are you getting on?
Alice: Not at all.
Cheshire Cat: Beg your pardon?
Alice: I said 'not at all'!
Queen: Whom are you talking to?
Alice: Oh, uh... a cat, your majesty!
Queen: Cat? Where?
Alice: There! Oh... Oh there he is again!
Queen: I warn you child, if I loose my temper, you loose your head, understand?
Cheshire Cat: You know, we could make her really angry. Shall we try?
Alice: Oh no no!
Cheshire Cat: Oh, but it's lots of fun!
Alice: No, no, no! Stop! Oh no!
White Rabbit: Oh my fur and whiskers!
King: Oh dear! Save the queen!
Queen: Someone's head will roll for this! Yours! Off with her...
King: But- but consider, my dear. Couldn't she have a trial... uh... first?
Queen: Trial?
King: Well, just a... uh... little trial? Hmm?
Queen: Hmm. Very well then. Let the trial begin!
White Rabbit: Huh... your majesty... members of the jury... loyal subjects...
King: A-hem...
White Rabbit: ...and the king. The prisoner at the bar is charged with enticing her majesty, the Queen of Hearts, into a game of croquet, and thereby willfully...
Alice: But...
White Rabbit: ...and with malice aforethought, teasing, tormenting, and otherwise annoying our beloved...
Queen: Don't mind all that! Get to the part where I loose my temper.
White Rabbit: Bwbwbwl... thereby causing the queen to loose her temper.
Queen: Now, Ha ha... are you ready for your sentence?
Alice: Sentence? Ah, but there must be a verdict first!
Queen: Sentence first! Verdict afterwards.
Alice: But that just isn't the way!
Queen: All ways are...
Alice: Your ways, your majesty.
Queen: Yes, my child. Off with her...
King: Consider, my dear. Uh... we called no witnesses... Uh... couldn't we hear... maybe one or two? Ha? Maybe?
Queen: Oh, very well. But get on with it!
King: First witness! First witness! Ah, we'll call the first witness.
White Rabbit: The March Hare.
King: Oh, oh, what do you know about this uh... unfortunate affair?
March Hare: Nothing.
Queen: Nothing whatever?
March Hare: Nothing whatever!
Queen: That's very important! Jury, write that down!
Alice: Unimportant, uh... your majesty means of course...
Queen: Silence! Next witness.
White Rabbit: The Dormouse!
Queen: Well...
Cards: Shhh!
Queen: What have you to say about this?
Dormouse: Twinkle, twinkle, little bat. How I wonder...
Queen: That's the most important piece of evidence we've heard yet. Write that down!
Jury: Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle...
Alice: Twinkle, twinkle. What next?

Cards: Huh?
King: Rule forty-two: all persons more than a mile high must leave the court immediately.
Alice: I'm not a mile high. And I'm not leaving.

Alice in Wonderland, over the hill or here or there, I wonder where.
Alice in Wonderland, how do you get to Wonderland?
Over the hill or under land, or just behind the tree?

Over the hill or here or there, I wonder where.
