Run baby run But the turtle won’t run Only the rabbits run Only the rabbits run And they make fun Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run And as they sprint And their tongues creep He feels the sharp teeth Cutting down deep Hidden in a shell Forged out of bruises They built him a dome But grant him no truces He was the underdog Struggling with rocks No way he could jump No way to stop the mock So it took him longer As he can’t stand tall But he was humble As he raced them all Run baby run But the turtle won’t run Only the rabbits run Only the rabbits run And they make fun Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run Those who were born strong But don’t bother to grow Soon they can go rotten If winter brings the snow They were made to run And trip when they walk There’s nothing to stare If you leave them bare As the hill appears The cockiness shrinks They soon run out of air Only the turtle resists Run baby run But the turtle won’t run Only the rabbits run Only the rabbits run And they make fun Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run Cuz the turtle won’t run And so they sprint Driven by thirst To leave no footprints As the turtle comes first
