Yertle The Turtle Lyrics - Freaky Styley - Red Hot Chili Peppers

On a far away island 

of Salamasond 

Yertle the turtle 

Was king of the pond 

A nice little pond 

It was clean it was neat 

The water was warm 

There was 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 me

With this stone for a throne 

I am too low down 

I cannot look down 

Upon the places beyond 

So Yertle the turtle king 

Lifted his hand 

And Yertle the turtle king 

Lifted his hand 

He ordered all the turtles 

Onto one another's back 

He piled them high 

Into a ten turtle stack 

I'm Yertle the turtle 

The things I now rule 

I'm king of a cow 

I'm king of a mule

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 see 

Yertle, Yertle the turtle... 

Yertle, Yertle the turtle...
