"White Rabbit" is a song by Jefferson Airplane, featured on the album Surrealistic Pillow in 1967 and released as a single in June of that year. It appeared in the Miami Vice episode "Duty and Honor".

Notes[]

  • "White Rabbit" is written as a parallel between the effects of hallucinogenic drugs (such as magic mushrooms) and the images in Lewis Carroll's Alice novels. The final chorus of "Feed your head!" refers to the alleged mind-expanding effects of taking hallucinogenic drugs.
  • The song is often used when referencing the late 1960s, as the use of drugs like LSD and others were popular in that era and the song makes numerous references to the use of such drugs.
