Growing Up In The 1960's Week- 1967

Jefferson Airplane, White Rabbit


(Sound starts after the introduction. The man you are not hearing is Noel Harrison, son of actor Rex Harrison. He had a hit TV show at the time, The Girl from U.N.C.L.E.)

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all

Go ask Alice, when she's ten feet tall

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call

And call Alice, when she was just small

When the men on the chessboard get up
And tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low

Go ask Alice, I think she'll know

When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the white knight is talking backwards
And the red queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
Feed your head
