Mr Lear - Al Stewart[00:00:01]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:00:07]
How pleasant to know at the end of the day he's near[00:00:10]
With a portfolio that daily features diverse creatures[00:00:15]
You open the book and it's true[00:00:21]
The world is a lot more mysterious than we knew[00:00:24]
Round every corner unusual things are prone to wander[00:00:29]
When I was a young man I was oft-times at the zoo[00:00:35]
To trace the visages and jass forms of parrots[00:00:41]
And cockatoos[00:00:45]
It's over the hill now he goes[00:00:48]
Pausing a while with the Pobble who has no toes[00:00:51]
For your perusal Victorian days are so unsual[00:00:56]
Oh my aged Uncle Arly [00:01:02]
Sitting on a heap of barley[00:01:05]
On his nosehis faithful cricket[00:01:09]
In his hat a railway ticket[00:01:12]
But his shoes were far too tight[00:01:16]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:01:21]
In Egypt the first day of spring[00:01:40]
You're painting a watercolor [00:01:43]
Hoping the light will bring[00:01:45]
Guided by pens and inks [00:01:47]
The pyramids and palms and sphinx[00:01:50]
When I was an old man I had a cat named Foss[00:01:53]
Now he's gone I wander on[00:02:00]
With this unbearable sense of loss[00:02:03]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:02:07]
How pleasant to know at the end of the day he's near[00:02:10]
And if you should find him[00:02:15]
His world is dancing close behind him[00:02:17]
Oh my aged Uncle Arly [00:02:21]
Sitting on a heap of barley[00:02:24]
On his nosehis faithful cricket[00:02:28]
In his hat a railway ticket[00:02:31]
But his shoes were far too tight[00:02:34]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:02:40]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:02:43]
How pleasant to know Mr Lear[00:02:46]
