Ten Tiny Turtles On The Telephone Lyrics - Sesame Street

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 

6, 7, 8, 9, 10 

Ten tiny turtles on the telephone 

Talking to the grocery man 

"We would like some lettuce, 

Will you send us ten heads please, 

And ten sweet potatoes 

And ten rutabagas with the dimples on their knees. 

And send us 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 

Artichokes 

Ten eggplants, over easy 

That's one of our little jokes ( ha ha ha ) 

Ten leafy, leafy collard greens 

And please make sure they're washed! 

Light up our eyes 

Brighten our lives 

With ten banana squash. 

We'll need ten cans of black-eyed peas 

They give you good strong muscles 

Ten of those tasty sprouts 

The ones that they call brussel's 

We'd also like ten mangoes 

They're the favorite of our sister Gert 

And one last thing 

Please do include ten apples for dessert! 

10! "
