Alice In Wonderland Page #5

Synopsis: Alice is a daydreaming young girl. She finds learning poems and listening to literature boring. She prefers stories with pictures and to live inside her imagination. One day, while enduring just such a poetry reading, she spots a large white rabbit...dressed in a jacket and carrying a large watch. He scurries off, saying he's late, for a very important date. She follows him through the forest. He then disappears down a rabbit hole. Alice follows, leading her to all manner of discoveries, characters and adventures.

unbirthday present too

Well, in that case

A very merry unbirthday

To

- You

- Mr Rabbit

Oh, Mr Rabbit! Oh,

now where did he go to?

A very merry unbirthday

to us, to us

Of all the silly nonsense

This is the stupidest tea party

I've ever been to in all my life

Well, I've had enough nonsense

I'm going home.

Straight home

That rabbit. Who cares

where he's going anyway?

Why, if it hadn't

been for him, I...

"Tulgey Wood"

Hmm. Curious

I don't remember this

Now let me see

Oh!

Mmm, no, no, please.

No more nonsense

Now, if I came this way,

I should go back this way

Oh, I-I beg your pardon

My goodness. When I get home,

I shall write a book about this place

If I... If I ever do get home

Oh, uh, excuse me

Um, could one of you tell me...

Uh... Heh-heh. Never mind

Oh, dear. It's getting

dreadfully dark

And nothing looks familiar

I shall certainly be glad

to get out of... Oh!

Who. Who-who

Who. Who-who

Who

It would be so nice if something

would make sense for a change

Oh!

"Don't step on the mome raths"

The mome raths?

A path! Oh, thank goodness

Ah. I just knew I'd

find one sooner or later

If I hurry fast, I might even

be home in time for tea

Oh. Oh, won't Dinah

be happy to see me

Oh, I just can't wait till I... Ah!

Oh, dear. Now I...

Now I shall never get out

Well, when... when one's lost,

I- I suppose it's good advice...

to stay where you are

until someone finds you

But... But who'd ever think

to look for me here?

Good advice

If, If, If, If I'd listened

earlier, I-I wouldn't be here

But... But that's just

the trouble with me

I give myself very good advice

But I very seldom follow it

That explains

The trouble that I'm always in

Be patient

Is very good advice

But the waiting

makes me curious

And I'd love the change

Should something strange

Begin

Well, I went along

my merry way

And I never stopped to reason

I should have known

There'd be a price to pay

Someday

I give myself

Very good advice

But I very seldom follow it

Will I ever learn

To do the things

I should

Will I ever learn

Learn to do the things

I should

And the mome raths outgrabe

Oh, Cheshire Cat! It's you!

Whom did you expect?

The White Rabbit perchance?

Oh, no, no, no.

I- I-I'm through with rabbits

I wanna go home!

- But I can't find my way

- Naturally

That's because you have no way

All ways here, you see,

are the Queen's way

- But I've never met any Queen

- You haven't?

You haven't?

Oh, but you must!

She'll be mad about you.

Simply mad

And the mome raths outgrabe

Please, please! Uh,

how can I find her?

Well, some go this way

Some go that way

But as for me, myself,

personally,

I prefer the short cut

Painting the roses red

We're painting the roses red

We dare not stop

or waste a drop

So let the paint be spread

We're painting the roses red

We're painting the roses red

Oh, painting

the roses red

And many a tear we shed

- Because we know

- They'll cease to grow

In fact they'll soon be dead

Ohh, and yet we go ahead

Painting the roses red, red

red, red, red, red, red, red

Painting the roses red

We're painting the roses red

Oh, pardon me, but, Mr Three

why must you paint them red

Huh? Oh!

Well, the fact is, miss,

we planted the white roses

by mistake, and...

The Queen she likes them red

If she saw white instead

- She'd raise a fuss

- And each of us

Would quickly lose his head

Goodness!

Since this is the thought we dread

We're painting the roses red

Oh, dear

Then let me help you

- Painting the roses red

- We're painting the roses red

Don't tell the Queen

what you have seen

Or say that's what we said but

we're painting the roses red

Yes, painting the roses red

- Not pink

- Not green - Not aquamarine

We're painting the roses red

- The Queen!

- The Queen!

- Queen!

- The Queen!

Cards, halt!

Sound off!

One, two, three,

four, five, six, seven,

eight, nine, ten, jack!

The rabbit

H- H-Her Imperial Highness,

Her, Her Grace,

Her Excellency, Her Royal

Majesty, the Queen of Hearts!

- And the King

- Hooray!

Hmm! Who's been

painting my roses red?

Who's been painting my roses red?

Who dares to paint with vulgar paint

The Royal flower bed

For painting my roses red

Someone will lose his head

Oh, no, Your Majesty, please!

It's all his fault!

Not me, Your Grace!

The ace! The ace!

- You? The deuce, you say?

- No! Two!

- Not me! The trey!

- That's enough!

Off with their heads!

They're going to lose their heads

For painting the roses red

It serves them right, they planted white

The roses should be red

Oh, they're going to

lose their heads

Silence!

Oh, please, please.

They were only trying...

And who is this?

Uh, well. Well, well, now,

uh, uh, let me see, my dear

It certainly isn't a heart.

Uh, do you suppose it's a club?

Why, it's a little girl

- Yes. A-And I was hoping...

- Look up. Speak nicely

And don't twiddle your fingers!

Turn out your toes. Curtsy

Open your mouth a little wider.

And always say:

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Now, um, where do you come from,

and where are you going?

W- Well, I-I'm trying

to find my way home

Your way? All ways

here are my ways!

Well, yes, I-I know.

But I was just thinking...

Curtsy while you're thinking.

It saves time

Uh, yes, Your Majesty.

But I was only going to ask...

I'll ask the questions!

Do you play croquet?

- Why, yes, Your Majesty

- Then let the game begin!

To your places. To your places. By order

of the King. Hurry, hurry, hurry

Shuffle deck!

Card cut! Deal cards!

Cards, halt!

Silence!

Off with his head!

Off with his head. Off with

his head. By order of the King

Uh, you heard what she said

- You're next, my dear

- Oh, but...

Uh, yes, Your Majesty

Oh!

- Stop!

- Oh, of all the impossible...

Do you want us both

to lose our heads?

- Uh-huh

- Well, I don't

Uh, I say, how are

you getting on?

- Not at all

- Beg pardon?

I said, not at all!

Who are you talking to?

- Oh, uh, a cat, Your Majesty

- Cat? Where?

There. Oh

- Oh, there he is again!

- I warn you, child,

if I lose my temper,

you lose your head!

Understand?

You know, we could make her

really angry. Shall we try?

- Oh, no, no!

- Oh, but it's loads of fun

No, no, no! Stop!

Oh, no!

Oh, my fur and whiskers!

Oh, dear! Save the Queen

Someone's head

will roll for this!

Yours!

- Off with her...

- But, but, but, but consider, my dear

Uh, couldn't she have

a trial? Huh? First?

- Trial?

- Well, th... Just a, a little trial? Hmm?

Hmm. Very well, then

Let the trial begin!

Your Majesty.

Members of the jury

Loyal subjects

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...

But...

and with malice aforethought,

teasing, tormenting...

- and otherwise annoying our beloved...

- Never mind all that!

Get to the part where

I lose my temper

Thereby causing the Queen

to lose her temper

Now, are you ready

Lewis Carroll

Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (; 27 January 1832 – 14 January 1898), better known by his pen name Lewis Carroll, was an English writer, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon, and photographer. His most famous writings are Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, its sequel Through the Looking-Glass, which includes the poem "Jabberwocky", and the poem The Hunting of the Snark – all examples of the genre of literary nonsense. He is noted for his facility at word play, logic and fantasy. There are societies in many parts of the world dedicated to the enjoyment and promotion of his works and the investigation of his life. more…
