Alice in Wonderland, Chapter 3

I’ve recorded Chapter 3 and here it is for your enjoyment.

I’ve also modified the tagging a bit and added some album art, and have adjusted the files for chapters 1 and 2 accordingly.  Re-download, or just re-tag; up to you.

Alice in Wonderland, Chapter 1

For a while I would read to my radio listeners one night a week.  I eventually stopped, but while I was still in the practice of doing that, several listeners had asked for recordings of my storytelling.

I never managed to get around to reading Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, despite it being a story that had been instrumental to my development.  It’s a story that’s never been too far from my mind, and of course Tim Burton’s recent movie has brought it forward a bit more than it had been.

Here is an audio recording of me reading the first chapter.  I plan to periodically record a chapter here & there and eventually have a full audio book.

P.S. Be grateful I didn’t autotune it. ;)

War Again

This song has been in my head for roughly the past week.

Don’t you know we got smart bombs
It’s a good thing that our bombs are clever
Don’t ya know that the smart bombs are so clever
They only kill bad people
Don’t you know though our kids are dumb,
We got smart bombs, what a joyous thing
Here we go so let’s drink a toast
To those clever bombs, and the men who built them

Chorus:
There they go now, there go all my friends
There they go now, marching off to war again
With their bright flags waving in the wind
There they go now, marching off to war again
Smiling proudly, with their heads in the clouds

Don’t you know this is better than any video friend
It’s an action movie
Here we go watch the bad guys get their butts kicked
Really makes me feel good
Here we go watching CNN, the adrenaline rushes through my veins
Don’t you know it’s a feel good show, electronic bliss
It’s a video, a video…

[Chorus]

Aren’t you glad we got smart bombs
It’s a damn good thing our bombs are clever
It’s a shame that our kids are dumb,
But our bombs are smart, what a lucky thing now
Don’t ya know it’s a feel good show and it’s suitable
For the whole darn family
Come on out everybody shout give a big salute to our ingenuity
Don’t you know this is better than, any video friend
It’s an action movie
Here we go watch the bad guys get their butts kicked
Really makes me feel good
Don’t you know it’s Nintendo
Really gets the blood running through my veins now
Don’t you know it’s a feel good show, electronic bliss
It’s a video, a video

There they go now, there go all my friends
There they go now, marching off to war again
With their bright flags waving in the wind
There they go now, marching off to war again
Smiling proudly

There they go now, there go all my friends
There they go now, marching off to war again
With their bright flags waving in the wind
There they go now, marching off to war again
Smiling proudly, with their heads in the clouds
See them smile now, marching off in lines

There they go now, there go all my friends
There they go now, marching off to war again…
