Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Turtles have short legs, not for walking

Turtles have short legs, not for the walking

[Verse 2]

Want to have a cigarette? Just give me a sign

Want to have a cigarette? Just give me a sign

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

[Verse 3]

Turtles have short legs, not for walking

Turtles have short legs, not for 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

[Verse 4]

Want to have a cigarette? Just give me a sign

Want to have a cigarette? Just give me sign

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

[Verse 5]

Turtle 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

[Verse 6]

Want to have a cigarette? Not for the talking

Want to have a cigarette? Just give me a sign

[Verse 7]

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out

But we can find it out, but we can find it out
