The Mock Turtle Song Lyrics & Tabs by Steely Dan
The Mock Turtle Song
guitar chords lyrics
"Will you walk a little faster?"
Said a whiting to a snail
"There's a porpoise close behind us
And he's treading on my tail"
Don't you see how eagerly
The turtles and the lobsters all advance
They are waiting on the shingle
Won't you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
You can really have no notion
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
You can really have no notion
How delightful it will be
When they take us up and throw us
With the lobsters in the sea
But the snail replied, "Too far, too far"
And gave a look askance
Said he thanked the whiting kindly
But he would not join the dance
Would not, could not, would not, could not
Would not join the dance
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
"What matters it how far we go?"
His scaly friend replied
"There is another shore
You know, upon the other side"
And the further off from England
The nearer is to France
Then turn not pale, beloved snail
But come and join the dance
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you, won't you
Won't you join the dance?
