Wonderland: the Musical - Advice From A Caterpillar Lyrics

CATERPILLAR
Oooooh whoo
Who are you?

LEGS
Who are you?

ALICE
A tenant, I don?t suppose you are the super

CATERPILLAR
Who are you?

LEGS
Who are you?

ALICE
Apartment 8A, as in Alice
Look I can see or find a service elevator
But I'm hoping that whatever comes down must go up

CATERPILLAR
Who are you?

LEGS
Who are you? are you?

ALICE
Seems that I should be asking you that question

CATERPILLAR
Identity is a tricky, tricky business
You think you are somebody till suddenly you are not
You are not your name and you are not your address
Cause the you who you remember is who you forgot

Heed this a advice from a caterpillar,
I know a thing or two of metamorphosis
Fool's paradise is you standing stiller
while the river rush in round is the thing you miss

ALICE
The way you talk sounds like a fortune cookie
Instead of how things really are

LEGS
Tell us who are you

CATERPILLAR
Well pardon me let's to look and see
You That you been Work and working out to far

Life is like jazz, things
Are always changing
Just when you learn the tone is time to modulate
Razzamatazzriffs arrearangin when the
You better sing it in tune
Melody is simple, then doný complicate

LEGS
So who are you? You?
Tell us True, Tell us True

ALICE
It is just me or only speaks in riddles?
And never answer me at all

CATERPILLAR
The more things change, the more they stay the same
From a distance you look smaller, but you are just as tall

LEGS
Tell us who are you?

CATERPILLAR
So who are you? I´ll repeat, repeat the question

LEGS
So tell us who you are?

CATERPILLAR
Are you prepared to tell me what you are looking for?

LEGS
Tell us what you are looking for?

You need a clue, well then here´s my suggestion?
If you can?t see what's in front of you them look some more

CATERPILLAR
OOH ooh
Hear what I?m saying girl,
You think we brought you here so you can sit back and relax?

LEGS
Be you ever so quick
With vision keen
By your eyes we are never seen
Unless per chance
It should comes to pass you
see our reflection in a looking glass

CATERPILLAR
Tell you what cha do
Every time or two
While you are passing through
From your point of view

Find out

CATERPILLAR
Who are

CATERPILLAR & LEGS
you?
