Alice in Wonderland
Lewis Carroll, 1832-1898

"Will you walk a little faster?"
Said a whiting to a snail,
"There's a porpoise close behind us,
And he's treading on my tail.
See how eagerly the lobsters
And the turtles all advance!
They are waiting on the shingle -
Will you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you,
Won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you,
Won't you, won't you join the dance?
"You can really have notion
How delightful it will be
When they take us up and throw us,
With the lobsters, out to sea!"
But the snail replied, "Too far, too far!"
And gave a look askance -
Said he thanked the whiting kindly,
But he would not join the dance.
Would not, could not, would not,
Could not, would not join the dance.
Would not, could not, would not,
Could not, could not join the cance.

"What matters it how far we go?"
His scaly friend replied,
"There is another shore, you know,
Upon the other side.
The further off from England
The nearer is to France -
Then turn not pale, beloved snail,
But come and join the dance.
Will you, won't you, will you,
Won't you, will you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you,
Won't you, won't you join the dance?

    Sure. Why not? Here's my poem:



    A long time ago, when the earth was green
    and there was more kinds of animals than you've ever seen,
    and they run around free while the world was bein' born,
    and the lovliest of all was the Unicorn.

    There was green alligators and long-neck geese.
    There was humpy bumpy camels and chimpanzees.
    There was catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born
    the lovliest of all was the Unicorn.

    But the Lord seen some sinnin', and it caused him pain.
    He says, "Stand back, I'm gonna make it rain."
    He says, "Hey Brother Noah, I'll tell ya whatcha do.
    Go and build me a floatin' zoo.

    And you take two alligators and a couple of geese,
    two humpy bumpy camels and two chimpanzees.
    Take two catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born,
    Noah, don't you forget my Unicorn."

    Now Noah was there, he answered the callin'
    and he finished up the ark just as the rain was fallin'.
    He marched in the animals two by two,
    and he called out as they went through,

    "Hey Lord, I got your two alligators and your couple of geese,
    your humpy bumpy camels and your chimpanzees.
    Got your catsandratsandelephants - but Lord, I'm so forlorn
    'cause I just don't see no Unicorn."

    Ol' Noah looked out through the drivin' rain
    but the Unicorns were hidin', playin' silly games.
    They were kickin' and splashin' in the misty morn,
    oh them silly Unicorn.

    The the goat started goatin', and the snake started snakin',
    the elephant started elephantin', and the boat started shaking'.
    The mouse started squeakin', and the lion started roarin',
    and everyone's abourd but the Unicorn.

    I mean the green alligators and the long-neck geese,
    the humpy bumpy camels and the chimpanzees.
    Noah cried, "Close the door 'cause the rain is pourin' -
    and we just can't wait for them Unicorn."

    Then the ark started movin', and it drifted with the tide,
    and the Unicorns looked up from the rock and cried.
    And the water come up and sort of floated them away -
    that's why you've never seen a Unicorn to this day.

    You'll see a lot of alligators and a whole mess of geese.
    You'll see humpy bumpy camels and lots of chimpanzees.
    You'll see catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born
    you're never gonna see no Unicorn
