I can run, look at me
I can jump, can you see?
I can hop, look at me
No one else is faster than me
No, no one else is faster than he

Well even though I may be slow
I always get where I need to go
Curl up tight inside my shell
Happy and warm, in the place I dwell

But I can run, look at me
I can jump, can you see?
I can hop, look at me
No one else is faster than me
No, no one else is faster than he

Well let me ask you, face to face
How would you like to have a race?
If I came first and you came last
Even though you’re very fast

But he can run, look at me
He can jump, can you see?
He can hop, look at me
No one else is faster than me

He can run, look at him
He can jump, he will win
He can hop, look at him
He’s fit and strong, and healthy and trim
And no one else is faster than him

Well you’ve heard the story
There was no glory
Hare ran the first mile then
He rested a while but

Too long did he take
It was a very big mistake because
Although he was fast
He finished last

Said Tortoise ‘It’s me, who’s usually behind
More often than not, at the end of the line
But sometimes it’s true, sometime’s the case
That slow and steady wins the race’
