16) Slow Song

Posted on October 29, 2012 Updated on February 5, 2015

I am a Sloth

Slow like a tortoise, happy like a saint

Living in the tree

Grounded with a brain

Gentle, happy, lovely face

I wouldn’t go for a race

As I am living in my own way

  

I am a Tortoise

Slow like a snail, live like a saint

Strolling on the ground

Protected by my own shell

Gentle, happy, lovely face

I wouldn’t go for a race

As the rabbit had already lost the race

 I am a snail

Slow like a worm, crawling like a saint

Chewing in the green

Singing in the rain

Gentle, happy, lovely face

I wouldn’t go for a race

As I may end up on your dining tray

 

 I am a human being

Speed like superman, think like Spiderman

Files piling up on my desk

Water level reaching up my neck

No more gentle, happy, lovely face

I always go for a race

‘Else my boss will said to me

you are sloth like a tortoise, slow like a snail

Hiring you is a waste
