When the men on the chessboard<\/span>
Get up and tell you where to go<\/span>
And you've just had some kind of mushroom<\/span>
And your mind is moving low.<\/span>
Go ask Alice<\/span>
I think she'll know.<\/span>
When logic and proportion<\/span>
Have fallen sloppy dead,<\/span>
And the White Knight is talking backwards<\/span>
And the Red Queen's "off with her head!"<\/span>
Remember what the dormouse said:<\/span>
"Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head"<\/span><\/p>\n

Beatles, When I'm 64<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Stanley Brothers, Rank Strangers<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Tommy Edwards, It's All in the Game<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, Your Move<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

. . . Make the white queen run so fast she hasn't got time<\/span>
to make you a wife<\/span><\/p>\n

'Cause it's time, it's time in time with your time and<\/span>
it's news is captured for the queen to use<\/span>
Move me on to any black square<\/span>
Use me anytime you want<\/span>
Just remember that the goal<\/span>
Is for us all to capture all we want, anywhere<\/span><\/p>\n

Don't surround yourself with yourself<\/span>
Move on back two squares<\/span>
Send an instant karma to me<\/span>
Initial it with loving care<\/span>
Don't surround yourself<\/span><\/p>\n

'Cause it's time, it's time in time with your time and<\/span>
it's news is captured for the queen to use . . .<\/span><\/p>\n
