Turtles have short legs, not for the walking,
Turtles have short legs, not for the walking.
Want to have a cigarette, just king-sized,
Want to have a cigarette, just king-sized,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out.
Turtles have short legs, not for the walking,
Turtles have short legs, not for the walking,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out.
Want to have a cigarette, just king-sized,
Want to have a cigarette, just king-sized,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out, ooh.
Turtles have short legs, not for the walking,
Turtles have short legs, not for the walking,
But we can find it out, but we can find it out,
But we can find it out, but we can find it out.
Want to have a cigarette, not for the choking,
Want to have a cigarette, just king-sized,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out.
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out,
Well, we can find it out, well, we can find it out.
