Turning Turtle Meryl Streep (Ft. Emily Blunt, Joel Dawson, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Nathanael Saleh & Pixie Davies)
[ANNABEL]
Turning turtle? What exactly does that mean?
[TOPSY]
It means my whole world goes flippity-flop like a turtle on its back. And I don't know my up from my down, my east from my west, my topsy from my bottomsy!
If you ring with something broken on a Thursday
I'll make new, with my glue, pins and thread
What you bring -- when I've awoken -- on a Friday
I will mend and then spend the day in bed
Children, Satur, Sun and Mondays are just everything is fun days
But in the second week, I wear a frown
For, I know that after Tuesday comes the Topsy get's bad news day
It's the dreaded second Wednesday
When from 9 to noon, my life turns upside down
Fast is slow, low is high, stop is go and that is why
Every second Wednesday is a hurdle
From 8 to 9, all is well
Then I roll over on my shell
And all because the world is turning turtle
Day is night, dog is cat, black is white, thin is fat
That is why I'm loosening up my girdle
I cannot help this charming troop
Don't mock me, 'cause I'm in the soup
And why? Because the world is turning turtle
