MAKE IT SNAPPY

(Sung by Kurt The Snapping Turtle)

Can a turtle jump a hurdle? PURPLE BURT'LL answer that:
"Kurt can't jump one but he'll bump one out the way in minutes flat."

As you know I cannot go much faster than a snail in snow
My legs are short and I support a big shell
Guess what? I'm slow!

Make it snappy, Make it snappy
I can hear you, It don't matter
Make it snappy, Make it snappy
I'm a turtle and that's that!

Snapping turtles are historic, Dinosauric, truth be told
So don't rush me, push or mush me
Have some respect for the old

You want speedy? Listen sweetie, I would move it if I could
If what you pay for's to be safer I am your guy Understood?

I am sturdy, strong and trusty - You will get where you are headed
Don't expect to get there fast 'Cause If you do you just don't get it

Make it snappy, Make it snappy
I can hear you, It don't matter
Make it snappy, Make it snappy
I'm a turtle and that's that!
