How to be a turtle

It's nice to lay my little body on a little rock
And bathe myself under the sun it suits me quite a lot
And later in the day I think I'll have a lazy swim
And see if I can find some tasty paramecium

It's cool to be a turtle. It's cool to lay quite still
Or swim about quite lazily it gives me quite a thrill
I like to be a turtle, I really really do
And you could also like it if you do what turtles do

Here comes Fred, my little friend, a very friend fish
I pop my head outside my shell and give him a fine swish
And Fred looks up and blows a bubble just to tell me hi
A very good and lazy life it suits me F Y I
