Stranded |
| 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… |
