All the Pearls

Think of all the pearls in the ocean

Think of all the pearls

This poor, cobalt clam

She tried so hard

To stay still and wide-shut

Just to keep out the sand

Until the day when

She fell in love with a worm

He just wanted inside for the warmth

But, he really made her laugh

You gotta give him that

You gotta give him that

But, she didn't realize

That she could take all the pain

That he gave her inside

And cover it in nacre

And, then she will make her own pearl

Think of all the pearls in the ocean

Think of all the pearls
