You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears.
Most creatures have them, even dears.
Some have cuties, some have queers.
They've propped up specs for many years.
We need them to enjoy loud cheers.
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears,
I have two. So do my peers.
Folks with one are in arrears.
I've had mine for years and years.
If they left me I'd burst in tears.
And if I went out drinking beers,
(and this is one of my worst fears)
without a hat I'd suffer leers,
or sneering jeers, or jeering sneers.
But wearing one would not bring cheers,
It might slide down, without the ears;
The line of sight it quickly clears,
(he couldn't see the things he hears.)
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears,
Like parachutes helppreventing smears,
they're airbrakes helping our bike gears
to slow us down for turns and veers.
With speed reduced our cycle steers
away from piers or into weirs,
preventing cuts and scrapes and tears.
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears,
Parenting's ugly head now rears,
The reputation it besmears,
for scolding kids (not scalds like sears).
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears,
On pillows laid as slumber nears ...
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have ears,
You've got to have earzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ...
