Intro

The turtle moves slowly and is happy with his pace of life

The flamingo walks with elegant grace -- she knows she's one of a kind

 If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

Sometimes, you just gotta know how to feel

The happy crab danced on the beach to a calypso beat

The happy marlin jumps for the pure joy of being alive

If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

Sometimes, you just gotta know how to feel

The gator grinned as he dreamed of his next meal

Every good fisherman has a pelican watching over him

 If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

If you can't stop, at least smile as you go by

Sometimes, you just gotta know how to feel
