little lonely boy, to my... I had 40 little plastic turtles. Right here, so I used to
just pretty much this is what I do in my.
(singing) "Little plastic turtles, sitting along the shelf. I sing to you because I'm lonely and I
can't help myself, can't help myself. Little turtles."
That was pretty much my entire childhood. Is that sad to you? That's sad. OK.
You should have at least had a big turtle. And you know it also frightened me at night as a child I
had this monkey. This accusing monkey staring at me in my bed.
I had this look at him. You, you who do you think you are? You little freak!

can't help myself. Little turtles."
You, little freak!
