Tom Paxton - At The 'quarium lyrics

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
