Wonderland
Sounds Like Harmony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I met this cat, and he said 'Son,
I've got nine lives and youve got one.
So make the best of this you can,
Cause nothing goes acording to plan.'

This cat was wise so i took his advice,
and waited for a little sunlight.
I got this feeling that it might work out alright.

Cause life is a trip and its full of this adventure.
The dead man has a panic attack,
but it slays whit good intentions.
I guess you could say that we're all mad here.
This life is a trip and its been a bad year.

I met this dog and he said 'Child,
You'll outlive me seven times.
So make the best of this you can,
Cause nothing goes acording to plan.'

This dog was wise so i took his advice
and waited for a little sunlight.
I got this feeling that it might work out alright.

Cause life is a trip and its full of this adventure.
The dead man has a panic attack,
but it slays whit good intentions.
I guess you could say that we're all mad here.
This life is a trip and its been a bad year

Nothing is real and thats a fact,
If you make belive in wonderland.
Nothing is real and thats a fact,
If you make belive in wonderland.

Love is a lock that i keep in my pocket.
Cause life is a trip and its full of this adventure.
The dead man has a panic attack,
But it slays whit good intentions
I guess you could say that we're all mad here.
This life is a trip and its been.

Cause life is a trip and its full of this adventure.
The dead man has a panic attack,
But it slays whit good intentions.




I guess you could say that we're all mad here.
This life is a trip and its been a bad year

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sounds Like Harmony's song Wonderland speak of the uncertainties that come with life and how to make the best out of the situation. The song begins with the singer meeting a wise cat who advises that we should make the most out of our one life since nothing goes according to plan. The cat's words are a reminder that life is unpredictable, and it is essential to do the best we can with the little time we have. The singer then meets a dog who reminds them that life is precious, and we should make the most of it since we will outlive our pets.


The chorus repeats the phrase "life is a trip, and it's full of adventure," which emphasizes that life is not always easy, but it is worth living. The phrase "we're all mad here" is an allusion to Alice in Wonderland, where everyone in the story is a little crazy. It serves as a reminder that nobody is perfect, and we are all struggling in some way. The last stanza brings the message that if we believe in Wonderland, everything can seem more magical and bearable, reminding us that it's never too late to find joy and hope in life.

@@VladKov36 Glad you like it haha :D I wrote it 5 years ago. I did actually know that crazy times were coming when I wrote this (as in, the world was going mad, which is what inspired it), but I did not know it would be 2020 haha.
