I Found 11,781 Sea Shells

You won't believe this miracle I went for a walk on Miami Beach And I found 11,781 sea shells As we speak, they are on the table I took my sweet time to count them And I am willing to recount them I want to sell them to someone So I can overturn the fair election Each of them represents one vote Class, please take outstanding note Dear voters, I am willing to negotiate With the most despicable candidate Because I want him to lose again Do I make sense to you? Imagine For a few minutes what I am doing What I am trying or attempting To do. No, this is not voodoo This is white magic. Out of the blue The loser will become a winner But he must be hypnotized with the crew Right away. Because January 20th. Is Around the corner, the world will be at ease When they'll wake up from La La land I will send the sea shells back in the sand If they don't offer me a lot of money They'll comply: that's my bread and honey That's my threat, that's my sales pitch Unless they're willing to send me a witch To recount the 11,781 sea shells again In life, sometimes we do things in vain.
