Alice Lyrics - Joan Armatrading

Alice is acting very, very strange 

Face almost perfect 

But her mind's deranged 

She's got a blissful smile 

Though a sad exchange for life 

Alice expecting a perfect day 

Luminous daydreams 

Homecoming strays 

Alice in wonderland 

Acting polite 

Is it what she knows 

Or what she invites

Alice responding to father's will 

That refuses the lie 

Swears she won't kill

Alice in wonderland 

Wondering why 

It's harder to live than it is to die 

Alice in wonderland 

Acting polite 

Is it what she knows 

Or what she invites 

Alice responding to father's will 

That refuses the lie 

Swears she won't kill
