Story Behind The Song
Alice is in Love with the Mad Hatter is probably the most metaphorical song I've ever written, since all the characters really represent a part of us. We all are a little Alice and we all have a Mad Hatter inside us. A Mad Hatter that doesn't really fit into the normal world, because he is from wonderland. Maybe your Mad Hatter likes to dance in the rain or he really enjoys talking to strangers about the weather. He sings loudly in the shower, gets lost in a big city, eats chocolate or draws little flowers in your notebook.
Some call him the inner child and everyone has a unique one. Some might hide their Mad Hatter and hardly let him do what he wants, while others enjoy letting him loose and have a lot of fun with him. Yet I'm sure that everyone loves him.
Alice is in Love with the Mad Hatter celebrates our inner child - even if it's not always logical nor does it always make sense.
Song Description
"Alice is in Love with the Mad Hatter" is a happy song that celebrates the joy of embracing your inner child and loving without being afraid. We don't need to always follow logic, sometimes it's ok to just enjoy ourselves, stop worrying and celebrating our love and happiness. It's a light song that's driven by female vocals and an acoustic guitar but that builds up adding more instruments like drums, bass, electric guitars, synthesizers... throughout the song without losing that fun and innocent feeling.

Lyrics
Alice is in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
The red queen got the news yesterday
And now they're running far away
Alice s in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
They are from two worlds and absolutely mad
But being crazy isn't always bad
They are one step away from reality
They know how to count an infinity
They're the craziest couple in history, and they know...
How to build up a castle with their dreams
How to move down the walls and be free
They rely on each other completely
They're in love.
So let them be just as crazy as they should be
just as mad as we all are, when we are in love
Can't you see? Nothing can stop their victory
the war is over, mad love beats hate and logic
(who needs logic?)
Alice is in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
They brought warmth into a cold world
Changed it all with a single word
Alice is in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
They built up their own universe
Between a chorus and a verse
universe - dudududuudu
universe - dudududuudu
They never draw a straight line
They write the best poems without a rime
They are an infinity with limited time, and they know
But they don't have a thing to fear
They're far away but right here
They made sadness disappear
In their love
So let them be just as crazy as they should be
Just as mad as we all are, when we are in love
Can't you see? Nothing can stop their victory
The war is over, mad love beat hate and logic
(Who needs logic?)
Alice is in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
Dudududdud
Alice is in love with the mad hatter, did you know?
Dudududdud
