Lyrics

Well your honor it started while I was enjoying the best lunch in the could be provided at short notice In the Red Lion I was about halfway through Lobster Thermador As if in a dream I could hear a distant sound approaching As if in a dream I heard it draw up in the yard As if in a dream it was abandoned a vehicle so grand And he parked it there with no left on guard As if in a dream I felt my legs begin to buckle As if in a dream I thought the ground beneath me shook As if in a dream I was in motion And with the harmless notion It wouldn't hurt to have a little look Some say stranger things have happened Things may not be as they seem But according to the toad This whole sorry episode All came about as if it were a dream As if in a dream all sense of right and wrong escaped me As if in a dream I sat down in the drivers seat As if in a dream though it surprised me the car had hypnotized me I stepped the brakes and off down the street As if in a dream I felt my foot upon the pedal As if in a dream I heard the engine's haunting sound As if in a dream I lost control and you say the car was stolen I say it was the other way around Some say stranger things have happened Things may not be as they seem But according to the toad This whole sorry episode All came about as if it were a dream Just picture it your honor the calling of the road The majesty the grandeur and the power The car was speeding forwards but I was in a trance Believing that this was in my finest hour You must believe that every word is true The moment that I saw the car I knew I had to have it! I have seldom heard a guilty plead proclaimed with such enthusiasm Watch the amphibian squirming Watch the amphibian sweat It's just a case of confirming the sentence you get Someone who's ego is swollen deserves to be brought down a size Clearly the car had been stolen And we'll have Toad Hall as a prize! (Yeah!) (Some) Some say stranger things have happened Things may not be as they seem But according to the toad This whole sorry episode All came about as if it were a dream Go on toad Just say your sorry You must know that you've done wrong Show repentance then your sentence may not be so long Just admit you stole the motor Just plead guilty to the crime Toad be humble for your crumble When your serving time Gentlefolk of the duty Gentlefolk! They're all stoats and weasels! They just want to steal Toad Hall That's what this is about can't you see! Gentlefolk of the duty have you reached your verdict We have! What is it Uh Guilty! Missus Clerk will you tell us please What is the stiffest penalty we can impose With of course not giving the prisoner the benefit of any doubt Because there is none This case presents a slew of violations (Violations) The like of which this court has long reviled (Long reviled) Say twelve months for the theft The owner was bereft In viewer which the penalty seems mild (It does seem mild) Add three years for the crime of reckless driving (Which is clement) Add 15 years for cheeking the police (A heinous crime) Well that's 19 years which may seem plenty Let's just round it up to twenty That's the price one pays to breach the peace (To breach the peace) Well there we have it On every single count The court has found you guilty of the crime The law is quite specific it places of this kind The miscreat will serve a lengthy time So lock him in the dungeons of this town For 20 years That's all This is outrageous! Now take him down Watch the tyrant tremble (Watch our poor friend tremble) Hear the villain scream (Hear our poor friend scream) Will the bandit understand it isn't all a dream Watch the tyrant tremble (If he begs the judge for mercy) Hear the villain scream (It will be to no avail) Fun is sparser when incarcerated in the jail There must be an end to every road Take away his freedom! Take away that bounder Take away that rascal Mister Toad! Toad! Poop poop Toad!
