Just cry and it's a crisis You sigh and put the sigh back in silence My tortoise taught don't pee in the sea Give into your grief like me Don't bother with denial Bereavement is the key to survival That tortoise was my husband you see Live and breathe your grief like me Mock me I'm living in shock here My cheeks thick with tears My heart is a dark polar block dear No one comes near No loss could ever match mine They weep the weep but I lost my Rabbi My tortoise taught us Torah, you see Meet yourself in grief like me Mock me i'm living in shock here Such pearls are my tears My heart is mock Loch Ness Monster Just don't come near My life has lost all porpoise I lost my hare I lost my hair I lost my tortoise! So so I sing King Lear-y ally Kvell within your shell like me Just build your walls (tell the shell) That's better (of grief, the wonder) Retract your head (tell the shell) You won't get wetter (of grief) Love is brief (swell the shell) And time's a thief (of grief duck under) Climb into your shell of grief (swell your shell of grief) So sweet
