Haddocks' Eyes is a poem by Lewis Carroll from Through the Looking-Glass. It is sung by The White Knight in chapter eight to a tune that he claims as his own invention, but which Alice recognizes as "I give thee all, I can no more".
By the time Alice heard it, she was already tired of poetry.
It is a parody of "Resolution and Independence" by William Wordsworth.
