THE CARDS:<br>
Bum bum bum bum<br>
Painting the roses red<br>
We're painting the roses red<br>
We dare not stop or waste a drop<br>
So let the paint be spread!<br>
We're painting the roses red<br>
We're painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
Oh, Painting the roses red<br>
And many a tear we shed<br>
<br>
THREE OF CLOVERS:<br>
Because we know<br>
<br>
TWO & THREE OF CLOVERS:<br>
They'll cease to grow<br>
<br>
ACE OF CLOVERS:<br>
In fact they'll soon be dead!<br>
<br>
ALL CARDS:<br>
And yet we go ahead<br>
Painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
Painting the roses red<br>
We're painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
ALICE:<br>
Oh, pardon me<br>
But Mister Three<br>
Why must you paint them red?<br>
<br>
THREE OF CLOVERS (SPOKEN):<br>
Well the fact is, miss<br>
We planted the white roses by mistake!<br>
And...<br>
<br>
ALL CARDS:<br>
The queen<br>
She likes them red<br>
If she saw white instead<br>
She'd raise her voice<br>
And each of us would quickly lose his head!<br>
<br>
Since this is the thought we dread<br>
We're painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
ALICE (SPOKEN):<br>
Oh, dear, then let me help you!<br>
<br>
ALICE:<br>
Painting the roses red...<br>
<br>
ALL:<br>
We're painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
Don't tell the queen that's what you've seen<br>
Or tell her what we've said!<br>
We're painting the roses red<br>
<br>
ALICE:<br>
Yes, painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
ACE:<br>
Not pink...<br>
<br>
THREE OF CLOVERS:<br>
Not green...<br>
<br>
ALICE:<br>
Not aquamarine!<br>
<br>
ALL:<br>
We're painting the roses red!<br>
<br>
