[Chorus]
I love you, Alice B. Toklas
And so does Gertrude Stein
I love you, Alice B. Toklas
I'm gonna change your name to mine
[Verse 1]
Red velvet trees and lions, grinnin' lions, candy witches
Eating lychee leaves, spinnin' rainbowin' light
Green wooly golden gardens, Marvin Gardens
Coriander, baby elephants singin' Silent Night
[Verse 2]
Sweet cinnamon and nutmeg, Che Guevara
Teotihuacan aglow
Clean cannabis sativa, sweet sativa
Chocolate, mountain snow
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Waltz with the furry fishes, curry dishes
Hurried tigers wearin' butterflies flyin' further than far
Kiss lime and lemon ladies, ice cream ladies
Orphan Annie, Ernest Hemingway, strummin' Bonnie Sitar
[Chorus]
I love you, Alice B. Toklas
And so does Gertrude Stein
I love you, Alice B. Toklas
I'm gonna change your name to mine
[Outro]
I love you, Alice B. Toklas (Alice B. Toklas)
And so does Gertrude Stein
I love you, Alice B. Toklas
