Yertle The Turtle
Lyricist:Michael Balzary, Anthony Kiedis, Cliff Martinez, Jack Sherman
Look at the turtle go, bro
On a far away island of Salamasond I said, Yertle the turtle was king of the pond A nice little pond, it was clean, it was neat The water was warm, there was a plenty to eat
Until one day, the king of them all Decided the kingdom he ruled, was too small ‽I'm a ruler of all that I see but I don't see enough And that's the trouble with meâ€
‽With this stone for a throne, I'm too low down I cannot look down upon the places beyond†So Yertle the turtle king lifted his hand And Yertle the turtle king gave a command
He ordered all the turtles onto one another's back He piled them high into a ten turtle stack 'Oh, Yertle the turtle, the things I now rule Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I'm king of a cow, I'm king of a mule'
Look at the turtle go, bro
Then down from below in the great turtle stack Came a burp from a plain little turtle named Mack Just part of the throne, this burpin' little turtle Looked up and said, 'I beg your pardon, King Yertle'
‽I've pains in my back, my shoulders and my knees How long must we stand here, Your Majesty†'Silence', the king of the turtles barked back To the bad burpin' little turtle named Mack ‽I'm Yertle the turtle, oh marvelous me For I am ruler of all that I seeâ€
Yertle, Yertle the turtle Yertle, Yertle the turtle Yertle, Yertle the turtle ...
