Story Behind The Song
Novelty song that came together by sheer luck and laughter of a bad hooting sound of a conch shell
Song Description
My wife liked the idea at the time, but it turned into something she may have later regretted due to the fact that i began to make fun of the concept and introduced a blaring french horn (conch shell sound) into the mix, making it sound similar to a ray steven song ivan the terrible.

Lyrics
When I was walking down the beach one day, I
came upon a quite unusual display
I found a conch shell, and I blew through it
It made a queer sound kind of sort of like this: ooh,
ooh ooh......
When I was blowin' through it, I was thinking just of
you,
And just now I'm a realizin', Baby I was tryin' to irritate
you,.
Here now in my mind with this new conch shell,
I'm sensing all the feelings of my past,
And my future's here but I can't stand still,
But I'm thankful for the experience of the new Conch
Shell, ooh, ooh, ooh,...
Oh yeah, I like my new conch shell, Oh yeah I like my
new conch shell
Oh yeah, I like to irritate you!
