morris and his turtle - kaveret - כוורת lyrics
[intro]
[verse 1]
long ago when he was young
he was really kind of dumb
but he always said ‘h*llo’ and closed the door
he made fire out of sticks
and some other cleaver tricks
and was basically a scintillating bore
[verse 2]
then one day, when he was ten
coming slowly ’round the bed
he encountered what appeared to be a sh*ll
but when he took a second glance
in his heart he felt romance
he decided hе would call the turtle ‘mel’
[chorus]
‘causе he found him
right on the street
he was crawling
on his feet
and when you find yourself a turtle
and you don’t know what to do
the best thing is to take him home with you
why don’t you play the music?
why don’t you play the music?
[verse 3]
simultaenously, they grew
and together they ate soup
what apparently, to them, seamed worth consuming
mel and morris were a team
they were perfect like a dream
they succeeded in whatever they were doing
[verse 4]
then one morning, half asleep
morris got up on his feet
just to check on good ol’ mel, who wasn’t snoring
but when he opened up the drawer
like so many times before
only, this time, melvin’s presense wasn’t showing
[chorus]
’cause he found him
right on the street
he was crawling
on his feet
and when you find yourself a turtle
and you don’t know what to do
the best thing is to take him home with you
why don’t you play the music?
why don’t you play the music?
[verse 5]
well, this really took some nerve
morris painfully observed
and away he went to find his rebel tortoise
searching high and searching low
braving rain and fighting snow
morris covered far more ground than even moses
[verse 6]
then while passing through a field
there was laughter that seemed real
and it sounded like a party on some farm
but when he looked behind this tree
he was quite surprised to see
good old melvin in somebody else’s arms
[chorus]
’cause he found him
right on the street
he was crawling
on his feet
and when you find yourself a turtle
and you don’t know what to do
the best thing is to take him home with you
why don’t you play the music?
why don’t you play the music?
[verse 7]
being a turt… let’s try again
being a turt… let’s try again
being a turtle is a drag
melvin tried to chew the rag
though by then it seemed that morris lost his interest
and two weeks later, he was seen
with his frog of wealthy means
who was formerly a very gorgeous princess
[chorus]
’cause he found him
right on the street
he was crawling
on his feet
but when your turtle starts complaining
and he’s making quite a fuss
try putting him beneath a moving bus
[outro]
and if you need more ideas
just ask old morris
