Slow
ABC Singsong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Slow as a snail
Look at him go
That's slow
Slow as a turtle walking up hill gradually
Slow as a seahorse dawdling in the ocean
Now come on a slow leisurely walk with me
Slow. It's a relaxed pace that suits me fine
I'm like a lackadaisical sloth
That's happy to take his time
This slow traffic dragging on
Just gives me a chance to think
And a super thick milkshake
Makes for a long, slow drink
Some people find
Standing in line is slow and annoying
But when things are slow, I think it's great
There's more time for enjoying
When it's slow
Nice and slow
