[00:04.52] |
On a far away island of Salamasond |
[00:06.60] |
Yertle the turtle was king of the pond |
[00:09.33] |
A nice little pond |
[00:10.49] |
It was clean it was neat |
[00:11.89] |
The water was warm |
[00:13.04] |
There was plenty to eat |
[00:14.59] |
Until one day |
[00:15.80] |
The king of them all decided the kingdom he ruled was too small |
[00:19.90] |
I'm a ruler of all that I see |
[00:22.42] |
But I don't see enough and that's the trouble with me |
[00:46.04] |
With this stone for a throne |
[00:47.20] |
I am too low down |
[00:48.47] |
I cannot look down upon the places beyond |
[00:51.16] |
So Yertle the turtle king lifted his hand |
[00:53.60] |
And Yertle the turtle king gave a command |
[00:56.18] |
He ordered all the turtles onto one another's back |
[00:58.68] |
He piled them high into a ten turtle stack |
[01:01.30][02:07.31] |
I'm Yertle the turtle |
[01:03.03] |
The things I now rule |
[01:03.97] |
I'm king of a cow |
[01:05.06] |
I'm king of a mule |
[01:46.81] |
Then down from below in the great turtle stack |
[01:49.12] |
Came a burp from a plain little turtle named Mack |
[01:51.30] |
Just part of the throne |
[01:52.86] |
This burpin' little turtle looked up and said |
[01:55.51] |
"I beg your pardon king Yertle" |
[01:56.96] |
I've pains in my back, my shoulders and my knees |
[01:59.19] |
How long must we stand here your majesty |
[02:02.31] |
"Silence!" the king of the Turtles barked back |
[02:04.73] |
To the bad burpin' little turtle named Mack |
[02:08.71] |
Oh marvelous me for I am ruler of all that I see |
[02:18.62] |
Yertle, Yertle the turtle... |
