The story behind the song

"White Rabbit" dives into a world inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, using its fantastical imagery to explore themes of perception and reality. The song suggests that different experiences can alter your perspective, making you feel both "larger" and "small," and that venturing into the unknown can lead to unexpected falls. It speaks to a journey where the mind moves slowly, perhaps from a "kind of mushroom," urging you to "feed your head" and open your mind. Written by Grace Slick, the song was recorded by Jefferson Airplane for their 1967 album Surrealistic Pillow, becoming a defining piece of the psychedelic rock era.
