Come to the pinniped parade with me.
There’ll be beautiful fin-footed friends to see.
All dressed in their finest furs and whiskers all cleaned.
They’ll be seals from around the world, walruses from icy seas.
And when the music starts to play, the sea lions take the lead.
First they’ll march on the land to a rhythm of their own.
The sea lions flippers keep them upright and tall.
Seals scoot like caterpillars trying not to fall.
The walruses look for clams, squirting water in the sand.
Then they walk on all four feet while everybody’s flippers keep the beat.
Chorus
Hear the sea lions barking . . . Hear the pretty seals burping . . .
Hear the walruses singing . . .
It’s the cutest, noisiest, most slippery parade in town.
Now we’ll watch the parade as it marches through the sea.
The pinniped friends swimming fast and gracefully.
It’s a beautiful, acrobatic underwater scene.
Dancers of ocean deep. Playing, diving . . .what a treat!
And when it’s time to take a nap, they slide upon the shore and just relax.
Chorus
Hear the sea lions barking . . . Hear the pretty seals burping . . .
Hear the walruses singing . . .
It’s the cutest, noisiest, most slippery parade in town.
It’s the cutest, noisiest, most slippery parade in town.
The pinniped parade!
Won’t you join in the pinniped parade with me?
You can be a playful sea lion, walrus or seal.
Talking to your friends many different kinds of sounds.
Barking loud, barking soft, chicken sounds, burps and coughs.
Now it’s time to join the fun and move to the beat with everyone.
Marching and Chorus
Be a sea lion barking . . . Be a pretty seal burping . . .
Be a walrus singing . . .
It’s the cutest, noisiest, most slippery parade in town!
It’s the cutest, noisiest, most slippery parade in town!
