Hello, everyone, and welcome to DtRH's production of
Yes, hello, and welcome to Down the Rabbit Hole's first-ever songwriting competition! This contest will be judging festive holiday songs-- but there's a catch (sigh, there's always a catch, isn't there...) You must put a Wonderland spin on a classic holiday carol! For example: Title: The Bloody Queen
To the Tune Of: Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Lyrics: Hark! The painted roses sing/
Glory to the Bloody Queen/
She'll cut your head off with a smile/
Then play croquet for a while.... ...And so on.
RULES!
Bah. Everybody knows the rules. No spamming, flaming, trolling, begging, bribing, quote towers, or changing the lyrics of songs that don't exist yet. If your holiday song is somewhat obscure, add a YouTube link to your entry so we can all learn how the tune goes. Blah blah bloopity bloop. You're good people, we trust you. heart
ENTERING!
Here's how you enter: Just post your lyrics with the entry form below:

Username : Ethereal Calm
Title: A Merry Cuppa
To the Tune Of: We wish you a merry christmas
Lyrics:*Chorus* We really really like tea here
Mad Hatter, he don't want no beer,
so come on everybody cheer,
Its a tea party here!
*Verse* Earl grey we bring,
for Queen not for King,
about tea we're singing,
and the joy that it brings.
*chorus* We really really like tea here
Mad Hatter, he don't want no beer,
so come on everybody cheer,
Its a tea party here!
*Verse* Milk and 2 sugars please,
Anymore is a tease,
without tea we will freeze,
the cheshire cat's on his knees.
*Chorus*We really really like tea here
Mad Hatter, he don't want no beer,
so come on everybody cheer,
Its a tea party here!
Finish sweatdrop heart

Your Song Title: In Our World Of Wonderland
To the Tune Of: Little Town of Bethlehem
Lyrics:
O in our world of Wonderland
Come through the looking glass
precious child take my hand
Oh dear little Alice
Ruled under a cold heart
Our world has gone to ruin
The cards shuffled and dealt with harm
Your innocence; our charm
O in our world of Wonderland
the hat slip off to see
the cat that smiles upon you
we are all truly mad
we aree all truly mad.

@thief: haha no worries, you're not too far behind-- I just sent it out Wednesday afternoon.... The end date isn't set in stone yet, but it'll definitely go until at least the new year. (so a week, minimum, but probably more. lol)
@Phish: So sad, but so sweet! Lovely lovely work...

Your Song Title: The Red Queen's Yells
To the Tune Of: Carol of the bells
Lyrics:
Hear how she yells
Shrill soundly yells
bringing the dread
OFF WITH THEIR HEADS~!
the red queen is here
Bringing the fear
To wild and tame
crazy or insane
OFF WITH HER HEAD
not hers his head instead
the axe goes cling cling
All mourning
wonderland folk hear
the queen she is near!
scurry everywhere
including the march hare
Oh how she yells
Raising her voice
its a life
or death choice
equipped with her crown
and her big frown
run away in fear
the red queen is here it took me awhile to write but i did it i couldnt find anything that ryhmed with christmas though hope u like sweatdrop

Username: Living_In_Song
Your Song Title: Oh Haunting Night
To the Tune Of: Oh Holy Night
Lyrics: Oh haunting night, the stars shine like tea trays,
And Alice, lost, cannot find her way home.
Lost in this mad land, as if it were a maze.
Until the cat appeared, she’s no longer alone.
She’s puzzled with, writing desks and ravens.
And no help comes from eating little cakes,
She must paaaaaiiiinnnntt the roses red,
She is nnnooooooootttt a flower.
Oh wwiiilllllllll she get home,
To her house, and silly cat?
She must paaaiiiinnnnntttt the roses red,
Oh really, will, she ever be home?
