Fans of Lewis Carroll's classic novel for children will be fascinated by this startling 1966 interpretation by Jonathan Miller, a noted British theater director. Influenced by surrealism and Victorian architecture, Miller's black-and-white versio… more »



Alice:
Oh, dear. Now, I--now, I shall never get out. Well, when one's lost, I suppose it's good advice to stay where you are, until someone finds you. B-But who'd ever think to look for me here? [sigh] Good advice. If I listened earlier, I wouldn't be here. But that's just the trouble with me. I give myself very good advice. [sings] 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? [begins to cry] Well... I went along my merry way, and I never stopped to reason. I should've known there'd be a price to pay, someday... Someday... I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it! [cries harder] Will I ever learn to do the things I should? [continues crying]

Chorus:
Will I ever learn / learn to do the things I should?

Cheshire Cat:
[singing in disappear] Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm / And the mome raths outgrabe

Alice:
Oh, Cheshire Cat, it's you!

Cheshire Cat:
Whom did you expect? The white rabbit, perchance?

Alice:
Oh, no, no, no. I-I'm through with rabbits. I want to go home! [blows nose] But I can't find my way.

Cheshire Cat:
Naturally. That's because you have no way. All ways here you see, are the QUEEN'S WAYS!

Alice:
But I've never met any queen.

Cheshire Cat:
You haven't? You ha-VEN'T? Oh, but you must! She'll be mad about you, simply mad! [chuckles, then rolls over and almost disappears] The mome raths outgrabe...

Alice:
Please, please! H-How can I find her?

Cheshire Cat:
Well, some go this way, and some go that way. But as for me, myself, personally, I prefer the short-cut.
