Oh, the shark, shark, shark
Goes a-swimming in the dark
He's ferocious and he's hungry every day
In the foaming ocean tide
Little fishes run and hide
'Til the great big shark will swim away
At the 'Quarium, the 'Quarium
All the fishes make the googlie eyes and stare-ium
Then the other little fishes come and marry 'em
At the 'Quarium, where we can go
Oh, the octopus's charms
Are its long and slender arms
They're as long and they're as sticky as can be
And the octopus's fun
Is to hug its honey-bun
But I don't believe I'd like it done to me
At the 'Quarium, the 'Quarium
All the fishes make the googlie eyes and stare-ium
Then the other little fishes come and marry 'em
At the 'Quarium, where we can go
There's a little, bitty clam
And he's sitting on the sand
And sits there every single day
And he doesn't wink an eye
At the fishes swimming by
And he doesn't have a single thing to say
At the 'Quarium, the 'Quarium
All the fishes make the googlie eyes and stare-ium
Then the other little fishes come and marry 'em
At the 'Quarium, where we can go
Oh, the swordfish has a sword
That would stick right through a board
So he swims just about wherever he pleases
Who would ever have supposed
He'd have a sword instead of a nose
Makes you wonder what he does whenever he sneezes
At the 'Quarium, the 'Quarium
All the fishes make the googlie eyes and stare-ium
And the other little fishes come and marry 'em
At the 'Quarium, where we can go
At the 'Quarium, where we can go
