The Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles - Stereo Mix

de Jethro Tull

This is the story of the hare who lost his spectacles!

Owl loved to rest quietly whilst no one was watching
Sitting on a fence one day, he was surprised when suddenly a Kangaroo ran close by
Now, this may not seem strange, but, when Owl overheard Kangaroo whisper to no one in particular
The Hare has lost his spectacles, well, he began to wonder

Presently, the Moon appeared from behind a cloud and there, lying on the grass was Hare
In the stream that flowed by the grass a Newt
And sitting astride a twig of a bush a Bee

Ostensibly motionless, the Hare was trembling with excitement
For without his spectacles he appeared completely helpless
Where were his spectacles? Could someone have stolen them?
Had he mislaid them? What was he to do?

Bee wanted to help, and thinking he had the answer began
You probably ate them thinking they were a carrot
No! Interrupted Owl, who was wise
I have good eye-sight, insight, and foresight
How could an intelligent Hare make such a silly mistake?
But all this time, Owl had been sitting on the fence, scowling!

A Kangaroo were hopping mad at this sort of talk
She thought herself far superior in intelligence to the others
She was their leader, their guru. She had the answer
Hare, you must go in search of the optician
But then she realized that Hare was completely helpless without his spectacles
And so, Kangaroo loudly proclaimed, "I can't send Hare in search of anything!"

You can guru, you can! Shouted Newt
You can send him with Owl
But Owl had gone to sleep
Newt knew too much to be stopped by so small a problem
You can take him in your pouch
But alas, Hare was much too big to fit into Kangaroo's pouch
All this time, it had been quite plain to Hare that the others knew nothing about spectacles

As for all their tempting ideas, well Hare didn't a-care
The lost spectacles were his own affair
And after all, Hare did have a spare a-pair
A-pair
