A Turtle Can't Talk Back
by Wayne Potash

I saw a turtle trying to cross the Street
He was moving slow
I didn’t want him to get hit by a car
So I yelled, “Hey turtle, NO!”

Chorus
But a turtle can’t talk back
He went, snap snap, snap snap
No a turtle can’t talk back
He went, snap snap, snap snap

A turtle’s bite can break a stick
Their jaws are fast and strong
I have even seen one once break a stick
Their necks are very long

Repeat Chorus

Now this turtle was very heavy and big
So I carefully pulled him by the tail
Back down to the water where he still lives
And I said, “Don’t you come back up this trail!”

Repeat Chorus
