Turning Turtle (From "Mary Poppins Returns"/Soundtrack Version)

Turning Turtle - Meryl Streep/Emily Blunt/Lin-Manuel Miranda (林-曼努尔·米兰达)
Turning turtle what exactly does that mean
It means my whole world goes flippity flop like a turtle on
It's back And I don't know
My up from my down my east from my west
My topsy from my bottomsy
If you bring something broken on a Thursday
I'll make new with my glue pins and thread
But you bring whatever broken on a Friday
I'll mend and then spend the day in bed
Children Satur Sunday 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
If 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 gurtle
I cannot help this charming troop
Don't lock me 'cause I'm in this soup
And why Because the world is turning turtle
How always me I'm as opposite as I can be
I long for Thursday when the world is drab
When will it cease now my life resembles nar and peace
That tolstoy certainly had the gift but yeah
I couldn't get through it
Bottom's top ying is yang
Is in taias to men dry
Tuesday nights my blood begins to curdle
East is west in is out and that is why
I need to shout oh no
The world is turning turtle
Oh if you had come some other morn'
You wouldn't have found me so forlorn
But since the day that I was born
Second Wednesday is on the fritz
I could mend this to save my soul
If this keeps up I'll dig a hole
You say life's a cherry bowl
But Wednesday's full of pits
Tell us can you fix this drum
Well today it's looking glum
Can you mend this crack and broken string
Perhaps if you all lend a hand
Our fingers are at your command
A broken song but still can sing
Let's do the turtle swing
Oh woe is me now I'm on my head
How can that be
Well you say woe but I say lucky you
Lucky me
Yes Here on your head
A is far behind in letters I've said
It's good to get a different point of view
You see when the world turns upside down
The best thing is turn right along with it
I do see from down here things seem right side up
I wouldn't mind seeing things from that angle
Sounds like fun
Can we
Very well
Flippity flop
Near is far and here is there
Turtles turning everywhere
Things are getting clear
Then knock on wood my dear
When you change the view from where you stood
The things you view will change for good
I never thought of things that way
She never thought of things that way
Now Wednesdays are my favourite days
Now Wednesdays are her favourite days
'Cause that's the day I'm quite contrary
I'm now thanks to cousin Mary I have changed to be exact
I love the fact
The world is turning turtle turtle turtle
