[Chorus]
Live like the tortoise
Carry your own home
Live past forever
Never feel alone
[Verse 1]
Drink lots of water
Get it anytime you can
Avoid dehydration
Always have a water plan
[Chorus]
Live like the tortoise
Carry your own home
Live past forever
Never feel alone
[Verse 2]
You must pace yourself wisely
Move steady but slow
You might not see the progress
But it’s the best way to grow
[Bridge 1]
When the sun goes down
And the sky turns orange and purple
And blue and pink and green
I know even though it’s cold
It’ll come back and shine for me
[Verse 3]
The next day it rises
With a glorious glow
I knew it would come
It didn’t promise but I know
[Verse 4]
It’ll be there every morning
Sure as it sets every night
So I lay my head down
And I close my eyes tight
[Bridge 2]
Try to have some pleasant dreams
That I know you deserve
And tomorrow you’ll use
The energy you conserve
[Verse 5]
Don’t waste your night with worry
Get some shut eye instead
You must protect precious sleep time
Or you’ll feel like your dead
[Chorus]
Live like the tortoise
Carry your own home
Live past forever
Never feel alone
[Verse 6]
Water, sleep and shelter
Kindness towards yourself and others can
Enrich a life that’s lived slowly
With this tortoise living plan
