Yertle The Turtle
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...

Freaky Styley

Say it out loud

Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh, hear my mother call
Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh, hear my mother call
I was one of five born to my mother
An older sister and three young brothers
We've seen it hard, we've seen it kind of rough
But always with a smile, she was sure to try to hide
The fact from us that life was really tough
I can hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call (Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh)
Late at night I hear her call
Oh lord, lord I hear her call
She said, "Father, father it's for the kids (Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh)
Any and every thing I did.
Please, please don't judge me too strong.
Lord knows I meant no wrong.
Lord knows I meant no wrong."
Then the devil sang
"Would you like to dance with me? (Ooh-ahh-ooh)
We're doin' the cosmic slop." (Ooh-ahh-ooh)
(x3)
She was well known through the ghetto
Tricks would come and then they'd go
The neighbors would talk and call her Jezebel
But always with a smile, she was sure to try to hide
The fact from us that she was catching hell, hey!
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call (Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh)
Late at night I hear her call
Oh lord, lord I hear her call
She says, "Father, father it's for the kids (Ahhh, ahh-ah-ahhhhh)
Any and every thing I did.
Please, please don't judge me too strong.
Lord knows I meant no wrong.
Lord knows I meant no wrong."
Lord!
