Graylag:
WE'RE OFF ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE
WE WILL BE NO STRANGER TO DANGER THE SQUADRON
WILL SHOW NO FEAR
Dot:
WE'RE OFF AND NO MATTER WHERE WE ROAM
ALTHOUGH THE MIND BOGGLES THIS GAGGLE IN GOGGLES
IS SURE TO FIND YOUR HOME
Graylag:
RUNWAY'S CLEAR
PREPARE FOR TAKEOFF, DEAR
WE MUST
PLAY OUR
PART
Dot:
HARK AT HIM
I FEAR HIS CABIN LIGHTS ARE RATHER DIM
Graylag:
CHOCKS AWAY
OUR AIR DISPLAY
MUST START
Graylag
& Dot:
WE'RE OFF ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE
AND OUR SIMPLE MISSION POSITION THE WHEREABOUTS
OF YOUR FARM
WE'RE OFF AND UNLESS WE'RE BLOWN INTO KINGDOM
COME
WE WON'T BE BACK UNTIL WE'VE FOUND YOUR MUM
Dot:
(But we don't even know where his farm is, dear. How are we going to plan the route?)
Graylag:
(Don’t worry dear. I'll navigate!)
Dot:
(That’s what I was afraid of.)
All
Geese:
WE'RE OFF ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE
IT'S A THANKLESS TASK BUT WE ASK
WHO COULD DO IT AS WELL AS WE
WE'RE OFF, TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM'S CRACKS
FOR WHAT COULD BE GRANDER
THAN HAVING A GANDER
FOR AWOL MISSING DUCKS
Cat:
(Hello ducky! I thought I lost you.)
Graylag:
(Stand back or I'll peck!)
Cat:
(Ooh, be still my quaking legs, I'm going to be
goosed!)
Ugly:
(What are you doing here?)
Cat:
(What are friends for? I’ve come to take you
home. Your mother is carrying on some fearful.)
Ugly:
(My mother? You’ve seen my
mother?)
Cat:
(Of course, she sent me to fetch you. Special
envoy.)
Graylag:
(Listen here, cat. I am in command around here, and I have taken personal charge of
the duckling's
safe return to his mother.)
Cat:
(Well, I wouldn't try flying at the moment.
Haven't you heard the guns?)
Graylag:
(We will commence maneuvers as soon as the
shooting party is over.)
Cat:
(Well, maybe I could be of assistance. I'll go
over to the shoot, and then I
will let you know when they are packing up for the day.)
Graylag:
(Very well, but no funny business. I know several ways to skin your
type.)
Cat
[aside]:
(It's like taking candy from a baby.)
All
Geese:
We're off on a wild goose chase.
Dot:
YOU MAY THINK IT ODD
THAT A SQUAD
SUCH AS OURS
CAN PERFORM THIS ROLE
All
Geese:
WE'RE OFF,
AND WE'LL PROVE THAT'S NOT THE CASE
Graylag:
AVOIDING THE ACK, ACK
WE'LL SEARCH FOR THIS QUACK, QUACK
AND THEN RETURN TO BASE
(We're about to face the most perilous mission
to date. I need hardly to tell
you of the risks involved,
or of the ultimate price we may have to pay. As we fly on to glory, I want you to know how very proud I am
of this squad. Keep a stiff upper
beak men, and remember our motto: "siempre victorium non pâté de foie gras"!)
Dot:
(Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. My name is
Dot. I am your senior flight attendant and on behalf of
captain Graylag, I would like to
welcome you to this afternoon's flight from
Boggy Marshland to some far-flung farm. We will be cruising at an altitude of several feet and flying in a rather attractive
V-formation. In the unlikely
event of an emergency landing, we
ask that you observe the safety procedures we've been through so many, many times before. We hope that you have a pleasant
journey, and thank you for
choosing Goose Air–
“the fluffy skies!")
All
Geese:
WE'RE OFF TO ENSURE THIS DUCKLING IS NOT SO GLUM
WE WON'T BE BACK UNTIL WE'VE FOUND YOUR–
Cat:
(The coast is clear. They're putting away their
guns.)
Graylag:
(Do you swear?)
Cat:
(On one of my lives.)
Graylag:
(Good. Alright men. Final check. Oh, and here’s
a parachute for you.)
Cat:
(F-f-for me?)
Graylag:
(You don't think I’m going to leave you here
with the duckling do you? Oh no,
puss, you're coming with us!)
Cat:
(Oh cat litter!)
All
Geese:
OUR WINGS ARE SPREAD
Ugly:
SO DON'T DELAY
All
Geese:
OUR EXCESS BAGS ARE STOWED AWAY
Ugly & Geese:
IT'S TIME TO FLY
Geese: Ugly:
WE'RE OFF ON A WILD GOOSE
CHASE THEY'RE OFF TO
TRY AND FIND THE FARM
WITH A HAPPY ENDING IMPENDING AND WHEN THEY FIND THE FARM THEY'LL FIND MY MUM
IF WE CAN LOCATE HIS NEST AND THEN SHE'LL BE THERE FOREVER EVERY DAY
WITH A HAPPY ENDING IMPENDING AND WHEN THEY FIND THE FARM THEY'LL FIND MY MUM
IF WE CAN LOCATE HIS NEST AND THEN SHE'LL BE THERE FOREVER EVERY DAY
(LOCATE HIS NEST) I’LL BE
WAITING COME WHAT MAY
WE'RE OFF CHEERIO, GOODBYE, SO I’LL SAY GOODBYE,
TOODLEPIP OLD CHUM TOODLEPIP OLD CHUM
Geese:
WE WON'T BE BACK UNTIL…
Ugly:
WE WON’T BE BACK UNTIL…
Cat:
WE WON’T BE BACK!
Geese & Cat: Ugly:
We won't be back until we've found…
Your mum! My
Mum!
