Lyrics:

[Intro]To Barry Jobs, a task I''m sent,''Find coral bright,'' its his kind intent.[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning shells and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]I return to Barry, my quest at an end,Coral to him my credits ascend.He smiles and a task I''m sent,''Find colorful shell,'' its his curious intent[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning clams and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]I return to Barry, my quest at an end,Shell to him my credits ascend.He smiles and a task I''m sent,''Find a pearl,'' its his hopeful intent[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning corals and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high!(Bridge)Each treasure found, I bring with care,One shell, one pearl, beyond compare.What does he do with all this hoard?A mystery grows, yet no reward.Does he make hats for the giant crabs?Or tiny sculptures for his office tabs?What fate awaits them, where they''ll go,A mystery remains, we''ll never know.[verse]I return to Barry, and I look at himHand him Pearl as if on whim''Find me coral,'' he''s repeat With a sigh and a shuffle I retreat [Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning shells and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]I return to Barry, and I stare at himHand him coral as if on whim''Some sea-glass,'' he''s replete,His grin so wide, I tap my feet.[bridge]Again I ask, his words make light,Shifting answers, a bit of slight.''A lovely find,'' and that is all,His secrets stand, so firm and tall.Perhaps I''ll shout, a booming squawk,See if his answers start to talk.[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning shells and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]I return to Barry, and I peer at himHand him sea-glass as if on whim''Colorful seashell, Something Pink'' I sigh at him and my feelings sink.[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning clams and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]I return to Barry, and I peek at himHand him shell as if on whimHe shakes his head, that''s not rightThe shell I found it much too white[Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning corals and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![Bridge]My steps turn light, a plan unfurled,To crack this code, my sense swirled.Each shell a hint, a pearl a clue,I''ll outsmart Barry, see it through.With cunning grin and clever stride,His purpose waits, it cannot hide.[verse]A clever ruse, my eyes they gleam,The shell I hold, part of my scheme.Barry waits, but I''ll delay,New treasures sought, day by day.[pre-Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning pearls and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![Chorus]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning corals and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]A trove of treasures, born of the tide, Pearlescent shells the clams did hide. Barry accepts them, a joyful smile, Off he wanders, he''ll be awhile.[verse]A path unseen I trace behind,Twists and turns ignites my mind.Where will he lead, a hunger to know,What mysteries will he show?[bridge]Silently I slip unnoticed into the room,There stands Barry, with his boon.Fingers caress keepsakes, a shrine taking form,Loss etched in, a love weathered and warm.He turns, caught off guard, face flushed in surprise,He stammers ''I need a coral,'' pleading eyes.[Chorus joyful]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning corals and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.Search, search, search with careful eye,Then triumph gleams, I raise it high![verse]To Barry''s side, a quest to repeat,He smiles wide, with gratitude so sweet.My credits rise, a small reward,To aid his work, my spirit restored.[Fading Outro]So I search, search, search the shore,Turning shells and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.So I search, search, search the shore,Turning pearls and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.So I search, search, search the shore,Turning seaglass and sifting more.Search, search, search the shifting ground,A startled crab, with shots all around.
