Song | Jabberwocky |

Album | You Dig The Tunnel, I'll Hide The Soil |
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves | |
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; | |
All mimsy were the borogoves, | |
And the mome raths outgrabe. | |
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son! | |
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! | |
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun | |
The frumious Bandersnatch!" | |
He took his vorpal sword in hand: | |
Long time the manxome foe he sought— | |
So rested he by the Tumtum tree, | |
And stood awhile in thought. | |
And as in uffish thought he stood, | |
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, | |
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, | |
And burbled as it came! | |
One, two! One, two! and through and through | |
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! | |
He left it dead, and with its head | |
He went galumphing back. | |
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? | |
Come to my arms, my beamish boy! | |
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!" | |
He chortled in his joy. | |
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves | |
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe; | |
All mimsy were the borogoves, | |
And the mome raths outgrabe. |
' Twas brillig, and the slithy toves | |
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe | |
All mimsy were the borogoves, | |
And the mome raths outgrabe. | |
" Beware the Jabberwock, my son! | |
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! | |
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun | |
The frumious Bandersnatch!" | |
He took his vorpal sword in hand: | |
Long time the manxome foe he sought | |
So rested he by the Tumtum tree, | |
And stood awhile in thought. | |
And as in uffish thought he stood, | |
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, | |
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, | |
And burbled as it came! | |
One, two! One, two! and through and through | |
The vorpal blade went snickersnack! | |
He left it dead, and with its head | |
He went galumphing back. | |
" And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? | |
Come to my arms, my beamish boy! | |

He chortled in his joy. | |
' Twas brillig, and the slithy toves | |
