Around the corner,
where the words are tender
and the music plays
from a backstreet window,
I heard someone saying that
just by the watchtower
there's a rainboat,
waiting with a dreamer on it
Alice, Alice, Alice..
You hear them calling
Alice, Alice, Alice
Don't listen to them
Well, I've been walking
like a wishful thinker,
but sometimes I hear them
calling for a healer,
and the times are tough,
I'm an underachiever
trying to sell some rubies
to these non-believers
Alice, Alice, Alice..
You hear them calling
Alice, Alice, Alice
Don't listen to them
