"Wonderland" lyrics

"Wonderland"

I fell asleep in the dentist chair
They'd shot me with all kinds of junk
I had a dream that was wicked cool
About this guy who was kind of a monk
He came out of a garbage can
And he spoke right out loud
To a great big crowd
He said
Do you believe in Wonderland
You wanna live in a Wonderland

Everybody keep your chin up
Keep your head down
Let your mind be clear
Everybody gotta do
A lotta work that you love
Before you get outta here
Everybody don't you spend
A lot of worry time
Thinking what this world is not
Just imagine us a good one
While living in the one we got

He waved his hand
And the stars turned red
Oh man it gave us a chill
He said for real hey it's no big deal
Anyone can do it at will
And we laughed and said
Do you believe in Wonderland
And he said
Can't you see it's a Wonderland

Everybody keep your chin up
Keep your head down
Let your mind be clear
Everybody don't be afraid
To touch another soul
'Cause that's why we're here
Everybody don't you sit around
Hating on the world
Before you're gone like a shot
Just imagine us a good one
While living in the one we got

I started hearing his Wonderland
In my cynical Blunderland

He said you gotta think
About the good things
That's what's gonna keep you sane
He said to just remember
Everything that you see
Is coming from your brain
And he went back into his garbage can
And I woke up in a whole lot of pain
I said it doesn't feel like a Wonderland
But I believe in Wonderland

Everybody keep your chin up
Keep your head down
Let your mind be clear
Everybody gotta do
A lotta work that you love
Before you get outta here
Everybody don't you be afraid
To touch another soul
Or to wipe a tear
Just imagine us a good one
