The title song is lyrical and visual rendition of Lewis Carroll Alice in Wonderland.^[2] Despite its "catchy tune with a bright, happy melody", the lyrics are on the contrary very gothic and dark with a memorable chorus "Devil, Angel & Epicurean, let's go!".^[2] In some instances, Imai in the background sings some lyrics from the band's previous song "Diabolo".^[2]

Music video shows a very "sophisticated",^[4] "macabre depiction of the story", with Alice chasing her rabbit, "the band periodically becoming rabbits", and the lead vocalist Atsushi Sakurai dressed as the Mad Hatter.^[5][6][7]
