Lyrics

No Room

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

No room! No room! No room!

Said the Mad Hatter.

His brain had turned to batter

From eating tuna fish or swordfish

Or some such matter.

Something he et, to be sure.

Chorus:

Don't bring another baby in.

The Duchess will feed it pepper,

Or it might turn into a pig

Because it knows no better.

No room! No room! No room!

No room at the table.

Adding another Alice

Might make one too many,

And the tea pot empty,

Not enough crumpets to go round.

(Chorus)

No room! No room! No room!

Holy is the foetus.

But babies once born are simply human,

And if they die in the streets of Calcutta,

No one will notice but their ma,

And ain't that just like a woman.

(Chorus)
