Another song taken from WDDs debut EP. This is political jazz at its best!
Intense hardcore rock with some great hooks and melodies. The only real political jazz crew around today.
Wonderland Dementation Dept. is a Swedish hard rocking crew with members from the critically acclaimed underground hardcore band Belltown and Misconduct. With a back-to-basics sound, snappy arrangements and a bunch of generally weird ideas, Wonderland Dementation Dept. combines heaviness, aggression and melody into a distinct sound of their own.

Lyrics
This morning, I woke up, from a dream, though I wasn't sure I was standing, on a field, of green grass and blue sky with a tree, tall and wide, reaching out to hug the stars I got up, in the tree, and looked down on the world
I got up real high, up to the sky,
clinging on thin branches
From my place, in the tree, among leaves and birds singing I looked down, all the faces, all the people, going places rushing by, in their own world, gazing down, every day and I knew, I was never, never going back there again I had to keep my refuge safe, up here overlooking it all I don’t take any chances with my sanity at stake
I got up real high, up to the sky,
clinging on thin branches
I wouldn't have done it, had I known what I know now
I got up real high, up to the sky,
clinging on thin branches
I will rest here for a while To grow by back my smile Until then I’ll stay in exile
