I went down by the sea, to find out what I could see,
With four fine friends for company
We started down a stair, but all stopped to stare
At a frog and a striped bass that we saw sitting there!
The frog played a trumpet; the fish strummed a bass,
And each of them had a big smile on his face!
They finished their song, took a bow and turned to go,
As a turtle gave them flowers all tied up with a bow!
"Now what kind of conduct is this?" asked I,
"To conduct a concert where people need to pass by?"
Oh we only play here after the tide has come in,"
Said the horn-playing frog with a large froggy grin.
"Come up the beach now,over near the beech tree
And you'll hear some jazz that's as cool as can be!"
So we listened to their music and joined them in dance,
You should really go hear them, if you have the dance!
