"Wonderland" lyrics - NILS LOFGREN

Where the boys and girls like to dance on the way to school
And even the pretty girls think that being nice is cool
Ain't no locks upon the door, ain't no country fighting no war
Ain't no boss or president here, and no judge to keep score

No one ever has to raise a hand in a wonder
In a wonderland
And compassion is something people understand in a wonder
In a wonderland

Where there ain't no government telling you who to fight
And you don't get singled out every time your wrong or right
Ain't no hungry people to feed, ain't no homeless children in need
Ain't no prejudice in anyone's heart, and no crime in the streets

No one ever has to raise a hand in a wonder
In a wonderland
And compassion is something people understand in a wonder
In a wonderland
In a wonder, in a wonderland

Where there ain't no fairytale Hollywood
People messing with your head
You never got to hurt anybody, or yourself to get ahead

No one ever has to raise a hand in a wonder
In a wonderland
And compassion is something people understand in a wonder
In a wonderland
In a wonder, in a wonderland
Little girl, in a wonderland

In a wonderland

It's a beautiful place to live your life
It's a beautiful place to call your home
Ain't no government telling you who to fight
Yes, in a wonderland
