Lyrics and Transcript[]
Anthony: The story of Emma's glasses. One day, at the Wiggle House, Emma was wearing her glasses to read her favourite book. But she couldn't see the pages clearly. She had another look; she couldn't see the pages clearly. She looked at Anthony and he was a blurry blue mess to her.
Emma: (singing) I woke up this morning
And I tried to read my book
It looked a little blurry so I took another look
The Male Wiggles: She woke up this morning
And she tried to read her book
It looked a little blurry so she took another look
Anthony: Emma took her glasses off and rubbed her eyes and had another look at Anthony. But, once again, all she saw was a blurry blue mess.
Emma: This is really quite perplexing
And I don't know what to do
Anthony, when I look at you all I see is blue
The Male Wiggles: This is quite perplexing in this ever-twisting plot
Maybe it is time to call the doc
Anthony: Emma really couldn't read her book. She couldn't see the other Wiggles in the Wiggle House. She didn't know what to do. Were her eyes troubling her? She wasn't sure? Was it the glasses? The only thing to do was call the optometrist, the eye doctor.
The Male Wiggles: Hello, Doctor
Doctor Spectacles
The eye specialist
We heard you're the best
Emma can't see clearly
Everything is blurry
We need your help
We need your help
Anthony: Doctor Spectacles was only too happy to come over right away to the Wiggle House and help out the Wiggle in distress with the blurry vision.
Simon: (as Doctor Spectacles) Oh, hello, Emma
Let me take a look
I heard you had some trouble trying to read your book
Emma: Hey there, Doctor, I cannot read my book
Everything is blurry, everywhere I look
Wiggles: Look, look (x4)
Doctor Spectacles: No worries, Emma, it's clear why you can't see
Your glasses are smudgy so here, have a wipee
Men: Wipe, wipe (x6)
Emma: Oh, yes, a wipe here. A little wipe there. This is quite fun actually when you get the hang of it. Ah, it's getting clearer. Hey, wow.
Anthony: Doctor Spectacles worked out it wasn't Emma's eyesight that was troubling her. Her glasses were all smudged and dirty. A little wipee, wipee, wipee made the glasses clean, clean, clean and Emma could see, see, see.
Emma: We have found an ending to this quite perplexing plot
My glasses are now clean; before they were not
All you have to do is a little cleansing wipe
Thank you, Doctor Spectacles
I can read day and night
Men: She can read day and night
Anthony: With Emma's glasses clean, she could read her lovely book. And she read her book and another book and another book. She looked at flowers and she had a wonderful day. And that's the end of the story.
