Red Hot Chili Peppers - Yertle The Turtle Lyrics
On a far away islandOf salamasondYertle the turtleWas king of the pondA nice little pondIt was clean it was neatThe water was warmThere was plenty to eatUntil one dayThe king of them allDecided the kingdomHe ruled was too smallIm a ruler of all that I seeBut I dont see enoughAnd thats the trouble with meWith this stone for a throneI am too low downI cannot look downUpon the places beyondSo yertle the turtle kingLifted his handAnd yertle the turtle kingLifted his handHe ordered all the turtlesOnto one anothers backHe piled them highInto a ten turtle stackIm yertle the turtleThe things I now ruleIm king of a cowIm king of a muleThen down from belowIn the great turtle stackCame a burp from a plainLittle turtle named mackJust part of the throneThis burpin little turtleLooked up and said i begYour pardon king yertleIve pains in my backMy shoulders and my kneesHow long must we standHere your majestysilence ! the king of theTurtles barked backTo the bad burpinLittle turtle named mackIm yertle the turtleOh marvelous me forI am ruler of all that I seeYertle, yertle the turtle...Yertle, yertle the turtle...
