It’s not a song about a shrimp lifting his barbellmo
E
It’s not a song about a banana who slipped on himself and fellmo
E A B7
It’s not about a parrot talking on his cellmo
E
It’s not a song about a dragon who likes to kiss and tellmo (I kissed Adam Sandler - OK)

When he’s at the beach, he always finds a shellmo

But now my song is over and it’s time to say it’s time to say it’s time to say it’s time to say
E
Farewellmo!
I think this song is about 90% correct, but it is good enough that you can play it for your kid and
that was
my goal. Enjoy!
