At Least We're Eastern Mud Turtles (2008)


MP3 Music and lyrics by Matt Van Brink from The Animal Estates Home Buyers' Tour

LYRICS

The mosquitos dart around the pond,
The beavers build their mound,
The fish, they swim in schools,
Even the algae gets around.
Though our life on the pond is sluggish,
And also rather buggish,
It may seem quite bizarre
That we like things just the way they are.

Please, we're eastern mud turtles.
Jeez, Louise, we're mud turtles.
We're not too fast,
But we're built to last.
From winter till spring, the mud turtles sing...
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo...
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo...
We hide in our shells
When nature impels.
You see we're eastern mud turtles.
We can't complain
So we sing this refrain.
At least we're eastern mud turtles,
At least we're eastern mud turtles.
