We've got most of the other animals covered.

2. Hmmm... just how would that play out?
I can see it now, sports fans... the Louisiana Lobsters got their tails clawed by the Carolina Crabs last night in a real melta on the delta! And check out the mussels on those Boston Bivalves, who scalloped the Columbus Clams in a shake n' bake showdown at The Shoe. Pass the cocktail sauce folks, its playoff time!

I think the walrus is a seriously underestimated animal.

9. Wasn't a rock ... it was a ROCK LOBSTER!
Rock Lobster - The B-52's

We were at a party
His ear lobe fell in the deep
Someone reached in and grabbed it
It was a rock lobster

We were at the beach
Everybody had matching towels
Somebody went under a dock
And there they saw a rock
It wasn't a rock
It was a rock lobster

Motion in the ocean
His air hose broke
Lots of trouble
Lots of bubble
He was in a jam
He's in a giant clam

Down, down...

Underneath the waves
Mermaids wavin'
Wavin' to mermen
Wavin' sea fans
Sea horses sailin'
Dolphins wailin'

Red snappers snappin'
Clam shells clappin'
Mussels flexin'
Flippers flippin'

Down, down...

Let's rock!

Boys in bikinis
Girls in surfboards
Everybody's rockin'
Everybody's fruggin'

Twistin' round the fire
Havin' fun
Bakin' potatoes
Bakin' in the sun

Put on your noseguard
Put on the lifeguard
Pass the tanning butter

Here comes a stringray
There goes a manta ray
In walked a jelly fish
There goes a dogfish
Chased by a catfish
In flew a sea robin
Watch out for that pirahna
There goes a narwhal
Here comes a bikini whale!
