i remember the first time i saw you you were stranded on highway 1 i bet the pavement felt warm against your belly, your head outstretched towards the sun. i turned around so that i could retrieve you i put you under the driver's seat if i recall, you really didn't like that you tried to bite and claw my feet... you're just a turtle in the middle of the road how could i think to pass you by? i couldn't live with a clear conscience had i left you there to die. you're just a turtle, you're just a turtle you're just a turtle.... i drove around for about half of an hour in an attempt to find a creek i found a place behind an old chinese restaraunt i parked my car and crossed the street a man in a pick-up truck pulled up behind me he asked if was going to eat you i said no, i was going to set you free he said too bad, you'd make a good stew you're just a turtle in the middle of the road how could i think to pass you by? i couldn't live with a clear conscience had i left you there to die. you're just a turtle, you're just a turtle you're just a turtle.... as i watched you swim into the distance i fought the tears back with all of my might i turned around and went back to my car i know that we'll both sleep better tonight |
