Kind of like a metaphor, see? To me, it sounds like someone who is trying to stay sane as they're under the influence...maybe the person Grace is talking to in the song is having their first drug experimentation? I don't know...that's just my impression. White Rabbit | Reviewer: Ben | 12/30/08 No one is right or wrong....the lyrics of the song are subjective and open to interpretation. Just because someone does not agree with you or your opinion does not make them wrong! What a bunch of boneheads! Some folks just have a lot of time on their hands I guess! Stop the bashing and just enjoy the song as you see it! In the end…it doesn’t matter! My interpretation | Reviewer: Ed | 12/30/08 This is a song about Grace's/everyone's 'growing up',,,transforming from a child/adolescent, into adulthood. References are indeed from Alice in Wonderland; hero of many young girls. Note the 'ten foot tall Alice' reference; when Grace/girls are young, Alice seems 'ten feet tall' and has all the answers. Now, trippin' on mushrooms, she realizes that her childhood hero's aren't the 'solution' for her anymore! They tell her 'where to go', etc. Even "Mom's pill" /advice doesn't work for her!! Nothing works!! "Logic and proportion" are distorted, and fail to bring her to sanity, in the 'altered consciousness' of psychedelics. Only the advice of the 'doormouse', (alter ego(?) of Grace) saves the day with the advice of the strength of self-reliance, kindness, character and of LEARNING,,,'feed your head'. Grace said many years ago in an interview that 'feed your head' was "to educate yourself", and specifically she said she 'did not mean it for you to take drugs'. References aplenty to this fact... Now then,,,'feed your head'. :) P.S. Grace, you sure did have a nice smile then!! If I ever see you, I hope you'll see mine!! peace/out!/POOF... White Rabbit | Reviewer: skipper6 | 12/23/08 You people clearly have no common sense whatsoever. White Rabbit was inspired and is about Alice in Wonderland. The white rabbit she follows down the hole, the smoking caterpillar, the Queen of Hearts. It's all right there. Watch Alice in Wonderland and listen to the song again you'll see I'm right. hah | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/9/08 this is about drugs and shit. the book called "go ask alice" is called that cause of this song. the book er diary was about a girl doing drugs and screwing up her life. there's a lot of refrence to drugs in this song btw I wish I lived in the 60s :/ Well..... | Reviewer: Carin | 12/8/08 Kris, I believe you are on to something. Darling Nick if anyone is "fucking stupid" it's you. If you go to the website www.airplane.freeservice.co.uk/interviews/grace1991.htm you will find an interview by Nancy Lynch with Grace Slick. At the begining of the interview (at the top of the page, for those who are less than capable to understand the simple words written) it says... AND I QUOTE " And one of Slick's own compositions, "White Rabbit," with its Alice-In-Wonderland-inspired lyrics, became one of the band's best-known songs. Grace was the right woman at the right time with the right talents. Imagination was her guiding star; her path was the realm of sensation. She loved to be outrageous, and her position in th elimelight gave her ample opportunity to indulge. Slick became the bitch-goddess, the "acid queen." So please do tell me, What does acid queen mean? hmmmm or what does the Alice-in-Wonderland- inspired lyrics mean? Does anyone know? Nick anything?? Huh and look at that, if you learned how to listen music and do some research, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Rabbit_(song) you would find the meaning behind the song, so all I have to say is that I have provided hopefully enough information, that is NOT from my own mouth, so that you (Nick) and any others wanting to challenge this, will finally understand well that you don't know, now do you. Have a nice WONDERFUL day. :) obviously | Reviewer: emmabeth | 12/9/08 obviously this song is a very influential one that had literary reference to alice in wonderland, but it is not about the story. although, we will never know what slick was thinking as she sung this song, it is meant to be interpreted by the listener and applied to his or her daily life. that is the purpose of all music. the character references of the book/movie are just to use metaphor and allusion not a song that is ACTUALLY ABOUT ridiculous animals and stuff, even though you might see some of that stuff when you are on acid or other drugs. don't think about it so much, jesus. Y'all Silly | Reviewer: One Who Laughs | 12/7/08 You guys are silly. the point of any song/poem/reading is generally to find what it means to you. To some it might be about drugs and to others it might be related to their love life. Why are you all angry? Aparently you did miss the point of JA's and almost all of the music of the 60's-70's. Wow Idiots | Reviewer: Nick Ellsworth | 12/4/08 you guys are the dumbest people ive ever seen. None of you have a clue what you are talking about. The song is about love and how they take a love pill. Not about fucking drugs you idiots. Learn how to listen to some music Kris. You are the dumbest of them all. NO, YOU ARE FUCKING RETARDED!!!! (= | Reviewer: johnny | 12/4/08 This song is OBVEOUSLY about Barak Abama!!! the rabbit OBVEOUSLY represents his numerous terrorist TIES! the rabbit hole is the hole that will be america after abama appoints all those terrorist and jews (and terrorist-jews) to run the country ..... the doormouse is hilary clinton Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9    10   Next 10 Pages
