Lester Leaps Out. Another pond-influenced number, involving a fine koi carp named Lester - at least that's what I called him - who regularly jumped clear into the air on warm days. A victim of the great flea-powder disaster of '97, Lester lives on in this tune. Not to be confused with Count Basie's "Lester Leaps In" featuring Lester Young, which is the best piece of music in the world. Ever.
