[Verse 1]
She stays pressed against the wall
So she can see the door
In case the laughing strangers call and
Crush the petals on the floor
Alice in her party dress
She thanks you kindly, so serene
She needs you like she needs her tranqs
To tell her that the world is clean, to

[Chorus]
Promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today

[Verse 2]
Pass the crystal, spread the tarot
In illusion, comfort lies
The safest way, the straight and narrow
No confusion, no surprise
Alice in her party, dressed to kill
She thanks you, turns away
Needs you like she needs her pills
To tell her that the world's okay, to
[Chorus]
Promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Today

[Outro]
Alice!
Don't give it away!
Alice!
Don't give it away!
