On a far away island
  of Salamasond
  Yertle the turtle
  Was king of the pond
  A nice little pond
  It was clean it was neat
  The water was warm
  There was plenty to eat
  Until one day
  The king of them all
  Decided the kingdom
  He ruled was too small
  I'm a ruler of all that I see
  But I don't see enough
  And that's the trouble with me
  
  With this stone for a throne
  I am too low down
  I cannot look down
  Upon the places beyond
  So Yertle the turtle king
  Lifted his hand
  And Yertle the turtle king
  Lifted his hand
  He ordered all the turtles
  Onto one another's back
  He piled them high
  Into a ten turtle stack
  I'm Yertle the turtle
  The things I now rule
  I'm king of a cow
  I'm king of a mule
  
  Then down from below
  In the great turtle stack
  Came a burp from a plain
  Little turtle named Mack
  Just part of the throne
  This burpin' little turtle
  Looked up and said "I beg
  Your pardon king Yertle"
  I've pains in my back
  My shoulders and my knees
  How long must we stand
  Here your majesty
  "Silence !" the king of the
  Turtles barked back
  To the bad burpin'
  Little turtle named Mack
  I'm Yertle the turtle
  Oh marvelous me for
  I am ruler of all that I see
  
  Yertle, Yertle the turtle...
  Yertle, Yertle the turtle...
