Song: The Mad Hatter
The Mad Hatter Lyrics from Wonderland
Well Hello, there, it’s me
With how it’s gonna be,
Settle down and listen up good.
The old Hatter is gone
But the Hat must go on
Worn by me, is that understood?
So shut up and tow the line,
While I redefine
How this all will be mine.
I have a dream,
It’s got a full head of steam!
What is true what is not
Can both change in a shot
And people me,
I couldn’t care less.
‘Cause in two seconds flat
Livin’ under my hat
Is the strategy for success.
I will look the other way
When you want to play
Something more than croquet.
You catch my drift?
My little personal gift!
I’m the Mad Hatter
Come and follow me, this is it.
The Mad Hatter,
All you gotta do is submit.
And if you don’t my friend,
Well then in the end,
There’ll be nothing left to defend.
Know what I mean?
When you are facing the Queen.
Everyone gets a taste,
And a brand new leather hat band.
But to participate,
Let me reiterate
You must first put me in command.
I’m the wonder, understand,
Under Wonderland,
Put the reigns in my hand.
I’ll do the rest,
As soon as you’ve acquiesced!
I’m the Mad Hatter
Offering a little bit more.
The Mad Hatter,
Giving you what you’re looking for.
I am your best worst case
For the choice you face,
And the fastest rat in the race!
It’s me or the queen
And her serene guillotine.
There is nothing I won’t do,
There is nothing too taboo,
I will lie, I will cheat,
I will track you down
And then hit delete tout suite!
So sweetie let me repeat…
I’m the Mad Hatter,
Lend allegiance while you still can,
The Mad Hatter
More than just a Hat with a plan.
I am where you belong,
The right kind of wrong,
And I’ll still be going real strong!
The bottom line
Is everything will be fine.
As all the planets align,
It’s gonna be so divine.
When all of this will be MINE!!
