Monáe’s “Wondaland” is a dreamlike, encompassing, and emotionally non-restrictive song. Its style is highly influenced by psychedelia and funk. In this Wondaland, everything is nonjudgmental.
Although there is connotation to Lewis Carroll’s novel, Alice in Wonderland, Monáe also references her self...
[Verse 1]
Early late at night
I wander off into a land
You can go, but you mustn't tell a soul
There's a world inside
Where dreamers meet each other
Once you go it's hard to come back
Let me paint your canvas as you dance
[Pre-Chorus]
Dance in the trees
Paint mysteries
The magnificent droid plays there
Your magic mind
Makes love to mine
I think I'm in love, angel
[Chorus]
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take me back to Wondaland
She thinks she left her underpants
[Verse 2]
The grass grows inside
The music floats you gently on your toes
Touch the nose, he'll change your clothes to tuxedos
Don't you freak and hide
I'll be your secret santa, do you mind?
Don't resist
The fairygods will have a fit
We should dance
[Pre-Chorus]
Dance in the trees
Paint mysteries
The magnificent droid plays there
Your magic mind
[Chorus]
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks she left her underpants
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks she left her underpants
[Bridge]
This is your land
This is my land
We belong here
Stay the night
I am so inspired
You touched my wires
My supernova shining bright
[Chorus]
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks she left her underpants
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks she left her underpants
[Outro]
This is your land
This is my land
We belong here
Stay the night
I am so inspired
You touched my wires
My supernova shining bright
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
