lyrics

Cast the bones, read the stones
Working for the dead
Nothing too unusual
Just a little taste of red.

Walking with a fearsome sight
Green eyes take me in
10 of 6 does mark the spot
With a perfect hat and a gleeful grin

We’re just Envy green and Cinnamon
Moving through the morning
Moving through the morning

Followed by the rabbit
Stalked along the way
Not sure what he’s looking for
But he left the white coat home today

He’s one of mother’s faithful
Caught somewhere in between
But I guess that’s what happens when
You’re the new Red Queen (yes, well)

The Doormouse raised his sleepy head
Told me to beware
The Jabberwock lives on this block
And he doesn’t play fair, well

Envy green and Cinnamon
Moving through the morning
Moving through the morning

Mama loved the sound of her own voice,
She wanted things her way
But sooner or later I always knew
That the Bandersnatch would have his day

Then that day came and she was gone
But no tear of mine was shed
For a green-eyed man, he took my hand
For my hatted love, I wear the red

East or West, up or down
We grow, we shrink, we fall
But a single smile against the dark
Disappears, despite it all

So we make it through as best we can,
Serving queen and kingdom, all
But keep an eye to the setting sun
If a hood and hat should come to call

We're just Envy Green and Cinnamon
Moving through the morning
Moving through the morning
