The Cheshire Cat (with lyrics)

A spontaneous basement jam during a 4 guitar session. I grabbed the microphone and started making up lyrics about the Cheshire Cat. (ok, I was a bit "lit" at the time. lol) The song has an eerie, distorted, chaos flavor to it. So I decided to make a vid for it. (instrument listing after lyrics)
LYRICS:
Don't know where you're going, and it
doesn't matter anyway.
Well, you'll just, go on your merry way
Said the Cheshire Cat,
Said the Cheshire Cat

In one direction lives the Mad Hatter
but you, don't want to see him
and in the other direction lives the March Hare
but he's, he's quite mad too!
Said The Cheshire Cat,
said the Cheshire Cat

(All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe. Said the Cheshire Cat)
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
Said the Cheshire Cat, said the Cheshire Cat!

Alice...oh dear Alice
which way are you going?
Tis' one way or the other

Dear Alice where are you going?
Tis' one way or the other
Then it, doesn't matter if you
don't know which way you're going
I should be knowing, I should be going!
Said the Cheshire Cat
(high pitch) Said the Cheshire Cat!!
How's about some tea??
How's about some tea??

Smile till you, start to fade
well the garden doorway awaits
are you inches 3?
but you don't have the key!
Said the Cheshire Cat
Said the Cheshire Cat!!
(weird guitar solo!)

A,E,I,O,U
A,E,I,O,U
What will you do
said the Cheshire Cat, what will you do?
(maniacal laughter)

Why is a raven like a writing desk?
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
She's stark raving mad!
Would you like some tea? (more laughter)
(music ceases) "You're starting to get, like, wicked, wicked loud!"
(laughter)
(sarcastic) "I'm terribly sorry Scott"

Man, I'm so in love with this song.

Seriously, it's everything I ever wanted for a song about Alice in Wonderland, especially the Cheshire cat.

I'm so thankful for your spontaneous basement jam being 'lit' xD

Is there anyway I could download a copy of your song?

[rasillon]

Thank you for the compliment. It was a completely spontaneous event when we recorded the song. Ha ha. Can't go wrong with the Cheshire Cat! I'm an Alice fanatic anyhow!!

I wouldn't mind if you downloaded it. I'm not sure how to do that from YouTube though. lol. I've been thinking of remixing it, to bring up the vocals more, and equalize the instruments. It was just a rough recording to start with.

[khyaoigirl396]

@rasillon Well, I was wondering if you could send me the mp3 version of the song, because that would be lovely. And remixing it would be cool, just dont lose the raw psychoness of it :3

[rasillon]

Oh I'd never lose the psycho-ness of it. LOL! I will remix it just a little bit. Can you e-mail things on YouTube? Not sure how to get it to you. Thanks. :-)

[sabbath7081]

did you play all 4 movements at the same time? and talk, and use a common base line,cause thats what i hear, sabbath7081@gmail.com.

[sabbath7081]

wait, where did you get this music from , it sounds like a jumbled up paul hindeneth string quartet 5 opus 32 which i posted a original 78 rpm red vinal record signed copy ,but my copy called it quartet4.

[sabbath7081]

stop droping acid and this will go away!

[houstongrantham]

faggot. scariest thing ever

[wishfuldreamsx3]

Ooh. That is creepy. >w> Awesome.

[doobiesmoke15]

That cat is LSD personified !

[dewoodyd]

@rasillon I'll look for them. Thanks

[rasillon]

I think my attempts to "lip sync" the Cheshire Cat to the words in this may have faltered towards the end of this video. Must have been a glitch somewhere. Bummer.
