'Twas brillig in the movie troves
We gyred and gimbled in the wait
All mimsey were the movie-goers
And the fan wraths outweighed.

Beware the Tim Burton flick
The flawless fright, the 3-D catch.
Beware the jaded outlook and
The frumious pysychofact.

He took his vorpal pen in hand
Long time the manxome flick he sought.
So rested he by the classics shelf
And rifled through the plots.

And as in other storybooks
The basic plot could not remain.
So whiffling through some tulgey nooks
He burbled at the game.

One, two! One, two! Renew! Renew!!
The vorpal pen went snicker-snack!
He never read what Carroll said;
He went ga-loating back.

And hast thou claimed the Jabberwock?
With Alice and her freakish friends?
"Oh frabjus pay we'll get one day!"
Tim chortled in the end.

'Twas brillig in the movie troves
We gyred and gimbled in the wait
All mimsey were the movie-goers
And the fan wraths outweighed.
