Poem

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom

Gotta get through the day
Gotta do your thing.
Gotta get through the day
Feel it deep within.
Gotta get through the day
People make some room.
Can't do a thing without
Shakka lakka boom!

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom

Go to bake a cake one day.
Go to bake a cake
Go to bake a bake one day
Hope I don't make a mistake
Add all the ingredients
Stir them with a spoon
A little salt and a pinch
Of shakka lakka boom!

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom

Made my Broadway debut
In a Shakespeare play
I know all my lines by heart
I know just want to say.
To be or not to be I said
And with a sense of doom
Forgot what came just after that,
Said shakka lakka boom!

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom

Go out on a hot date
Small talk and a chat
Go out on a hot date
And then back to his flat.
Making lots of small talk
Hope I don't peak too soon.
All he did was stroke my arm
And shakka lakka boom!

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom

And then I went to the funeral
My aunt had passed away.
Such a lovely funeral
On such a dismal day.
I went to give the eulogy
The coffin lid went zoom!
My aunt she suddenly sat right up,
Said shakka lakka boom!

Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
Shakka lakka boom boom
Shakka lakka boom
