Alice poems/recitations

[UnknownTalent]

This one's from Alice: Madness Returns, It's probably my favorite

 

"The Sandman"

 

The Sandman's coming in his train of cars

 

With moonbeam windows and wheels of stars

 

So hush you little ones, and have no fear

 

The man in the moon, he is the engineer

"Walrus' Poem"

 

 

Sword and Crown are worthless here.
I invite everyone to dance.
Laborers, Lawyers, Church, and Gown, All make thair little prance.

Men and Women, Young and Old, reject my prophet hand.
I don't implore them, nor ignore them.
I firmly take my stand.

This life is full of random death.
And heaps of greif and shame.
So few are soothed by "accident",
You wnat someone to blame.

Fire, Plague, or Strange Disease,
Drowned, Murdered, or, if you please,
A long fall down the basement stairs.

None are expected,
No one cares.

I know the steps very well,
All must learn my little dance.

Families may die and loved ones cry, but no one is left to chance.

I often must work very hard, sweat running down my skin.
After the dance, I then must rest, and the eating can begin.

"How Doth the Little Crocodile?"

 

How doth the little crocodile

Improve his shining tail

And pour the waters of the Nile

On every golden scale!

 

How cheerfully he seems to grin

How neatly he spreads his claws

And welcomes little fishes is

With gently smiling jaws

"Speak Roughly"

 

Speak roughly to your little boy,

And beat him when he sneezes:

He only does it to annoy,

Because he knows it teases.

 

Chorus

Wow! wow! wow!

 

I speak severely to my boy,

I beat him when he sneezes;

For he can thoroughly enjoy

The pepper when he pleases!
