Alice In The Looking Glass Lyrics - Singles - Matraca Berg

At nine o'clock each morning down on Charlotte Avenue 

The bus driver stops and lets her off 

Before the first shampoo 

Alice started working there when she was just a girl 

And now she mans the second chair 

At Thelma's Cut and Curl 

 

A trim is just ten dollars and the conversation's free 

She recreates the latest styles of 1963 

With a lipstick-circled cigarette constantly aflame 

She greets all her clientele 

By first and middle names 

 

And even though that mirror paints a picture much too clear 

She'll mix you up some magic and she'll dye away the years 

And, oh, they come and go so fast 

Don't they, Alice -- Alice in the looking glass 

 

One time she was married, but now she lives alone 

But there's a little ancient poodle 

Waiting there for her at home 

And she'll tell you all about him like he was her only child 

And rubs her swollen ankles 

While she waits for you to dry 

 

There's a picture on the mirror there of her at seventeen 

The day that Thelma did her hair when she was football queen 

And, oh, they come and go so fast 

Don't they, Alice -- Alice in the looking glass 

 

Even though that mirror paints a picture much too clear 

She'll mix you up some magic and she'll dye away the years 

And, oh, they keep coming back 

Don't they, Alice -- Alice in the looking glass
