Good tap dance songs for an Alice in Wonderland themed recital?

The theme of my dance recital this year is Alice in Wonderland. I need to help my teacher find a good song for tap. It has to be an upbeat relatively fast paced song. It just needs to relate to Alice in Wonderland in some way. It could be her falling down the rabbit hole, meeting the different characters, dreaming, tea party, cards (not poker face we did that last year hahaha), basically its a pretty broad theme. Any ides? Thanks!

tea party by kerli?

they play it in the movie, its fast at points, but it gets ballet-y. But I'm sure you could cut that out.

we're doing a musical theater to that song
