We met a sea lion who sings Led Zeppelin's "A Whole Lotta Love" (SFX) and a walrus who sings Beatles tunes (WALRUS SINGING) plus a dolphin singing the theme from JAWS (SFX) and you're taking pictures with your videocam (SFX) and you back up to get a wider shot and suddenly (FN: WHOAAAAA, FALLING, SPLASH) over the side you go and suddenly you feel a big flipper around your shoulders (SEA LION) ---- it's a sea lioness ----- and she's in love with you (SEA LION) ----- all 800 pounds of her (SEA LION) ------ now there are two flippers around you (SEA LION PASSION) (RHUBARB PIE THEME)
Wouldn't this be a good time for a piece of rhubarb pie? Nothing gets the taste of shame and humiliation out of your mouth like Bebopareebop Rhubarb Pie.

One little thing can revive a guy
And that is a piece of rhubarb pie
Serve it up, nice and hot
Maybe things aren't as bad as you thought
(DUET)
Mama's little baby loves rhubarb, rhubarb
Bebopareebop rhubarb pie
Mama's little baby loves rhubarb, rhubarb
Bebopareebop rhubarb pie
