Why, that's simple President-Soon-to-be-Elect Bobert. Yer shanty sings is where a bunch of folks who never seen more than a bathtub fulla water sing about their life on the sea. It's easy. I do it all the time, arrrh. It's that kinda experience that will give your administration the people's touch...make you one of the common man...the salt of the Earth.
A Department of Shanty Singing will make you one of us. Read some of my position reports, then you just go on national television and sing songs about slaughtering whales, and getting drunk, and the various rude things you will be doing to whores on shore, then you will win the hearts and minds of the people.
Folks'll(that's a little sailor joke) be talking about you fer days.
