The Big Aquarium - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
THE BIG AQUARIUM. Written and sung by Sam Devere. 
I stopped at the big aquarium. Not very long ago; To see the bass And suckers, And to hear the white whale blow. A skate and a flounder making love, And they shook each others fins; And a crab with a sunshade over his head, Come along with a pair of twins. 
Chorus. Oh, the big sea lion he bowled and growled, And the seal beat time with the drum; And the whale he swallowed a ton of eels, At the big aquarium. 
I had my gal along with me. She's purty, but she's dark; But when she laughed and opened her mouth, I thought she'd swallow the shark. The lobster smiled and sucked his thumb, And laid as still as death; When the turtle winked his eye at Sal, It nearly took her breath.-Chorus. 
The music played and the sturgeon danced, But the porpoise cleared the track; The eel he tied himself in a knot. And the crab walked on his back. The trout and the catfish danced a reel, And the sea lion let a roar; When the whale got up and Mowed his nose, My gal. Sal, bounced out the door. - Chorus.
