Turtles do it!
folk surreal satire
I've always considered myself folk, but I play an electric guitar, so you figure it out. I'm just a guy with some cheesy equipment. Sheet music really helps me
I'm just an old man recording in a basement. The band is an AdrenaLinn effects and drum machine, some amps and some guitars

Story behind the song
Years ago I wrote down the words "fertile turtle" in one of my books. I saw it a few weeks ago and this entire silly song popped into my head.
Lyrics
Fertile Turtle There once was a fertile turtle Lived under a bridge He had a lot of turtle gurlfriends And they did what turtles did. Oh you know the type Laying out on those logs All atop each other Like those dirty little frogs. Well all those gurlfriends Swam to the water's edge Dug holes in the gravel And filled them full of eggs. (Chorus) So Gals: When you get that itch Way down in your girdle Get out on the dance floor And think of the fertile turtle First ya step out of your shell Then you jump, jump jump. Ain't no better way To get that baby bump. Only when everything is perfect Can every thing can go wrong It's the reason for this story And the moral of this song. For the nights were calm and warm And from each of those eggs Hatched two eyes and a beak And two little pairs of legs. They all jumped in the river And floated into town That's when everyone noticed There were turtles all around So many turtles It seemed like a dream We didn't know whether to wake up Or just lay back down and scream Chorus. (Chorus)
