Anybody remember this one?<br /><br />Wet Dreams<br />by Kip Addotta <br /><br />It was April the forty-first<br />Being a quadruple leap year<br />I was driving in downtown Atlantis<br />My barracuda was in the shop<br />So I was in a rented stingray<br />And it was overheating<br /><br />So I pulled into a Shell Station<br />They said I'd blown a seal<br />I said, "Fix the damn thing<br />And leave my private life out of it<br />Okay pal?"<br /><br />While they were doing that<br />I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar, a real dive<br />But I knew the owner<br />He used to play for the Dolphins<br />I said "Hi Gil"<br />You have to yell, he's hard of herring<br /><br />Think I had a wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh<br />Wet dream<br /><br />Gil was also down on his luck<br />Fact is he was barely keeping his head below water<br />I bellied up to the sandbar<br />He poured me the usual<br /><br />Rusty snail, hold the grunion<br />Shaken not stirred<br />With a peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side<br />Heavy on the mako<br /><br />I slipped him a fin<br />On porpoise<br />I was feeling good<br />I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry's squids<br />For the halibut<br /><br />Well the place was crowded<br />We were packed in like sardines They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal<br />What sole<br /><br />Tommy was rockin' the place with a very popular tuna<br /> Salmon Chanted Evening <br />And the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers<br />Probably there to see the bass player<br /><br />One of them was this cute little yellowtail<br />And she's giving me the eye<br />So I figured this is my chance for a little fun<br />You know, piece of Pisces<br /><br />But she said things I just couldn't fathom<br />She was too deep, seemed to be under a lot of pressure<br />Boy, could she drink<br />She drank like a . . .<br />She drank a lot<br /><br />I said "What's your sign"<br />She said "Aquarium"<br />I said "Great, let's get tanked"<br /><br />Think I had a wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh<br />Wet dream<br /><br />I invited her to my place for a midnight bait<br />I said "Come on baby, it'll only take a few minnows"<br />She threw me that same old line<br />"Not tonight, I gotta haddock"<br /><br />And she wasn't kidding either<br />Cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock<br />I'd ever seen come down the pike<br />He was covered with mussels<br /><br />He came over to me and said<br />"Listen, shrimp, don't you come trollin' around here"<br />What a crab<br />This guy was steamed<br />I could see the anchor in his eyes<br /><br />I turned to him, I said<br />"A-balone, you're just being shellfish"<br />Well, I knew it was going to be trouble and so did Gil<br />‘Cause he was already on the phone to the cods<br /><br />The haddock hits me with a sucker punch<br />I catch him with a left hook<br />He eels over<br />It was a fluke but there he was<br />Lying on the deck, flat as a mackerel<br />Kelpless<br /><br />I said "Forget the cods Gil<br />This guy's gonna need a sturgeon"<br />Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriend<br />She came over to me, she said<br />"Hey, big boy, you're really a game fish<br />What's your name"<br />I said "Marlin"<br /><br />Think I had a wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh<br />Wet dream<br /><br />Well, from then on we had a whale of a time<br />I took her to dinner, I took her to dance<br />I bought her a bouquet of flounders <br />And then I went home with her<br />And what did I get for my trouble<br />A case of the clams<br /><br />Think I had a wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh<br /><br />Wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh<br /><br />Wet dream<br />Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream<br />Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
