Alice - The Sisters of Mercy

Alice pressed against the wall So she can see the door

In case the laughing strangers crawl and Crush the petals on the floor

Alice in her party dress She thanks you kindly So serene

She needs you like she needs her tranqs To tell her that the world is clean

To promise her a definition Tell her where the rain will fall

Tell her where the sun shines bright And tell her she can have it all

Today Today

Pass the crystal spread the Tarot In illusion comfort lies

The safest way the straight and narrow No confusion no surprise

Alice in her party dressed to kill She thanks you turns away

She needs you like she needs needs her pills

To tell her that the world’s okay To promise her a definition

Tell her where the rain will fall Tell her where the sun shines bright

And tell her she can have it all

Today

Alice

Don’t give it away
