I once strolled down a beach and picked up seashells I could see on the sea floor,

So as to sell snake oil, or rather, said shells at the seaside shore,

Seemed safe and sound to set up shop, my splendid Sea Store, seeing such success left me seeking more,

Until someone, storming through the door, shouted she had seen a surfeit o' seashells on the seashore,

So in shared satisfaction, they all surged out with passion, strong unlike before.

What a shame, such savory stupidity no longer in action, on my sunken sea store.
