Song Lyrics
Fish Band: If you L-O-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, love the ocean

You gotta S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Make a C-O-M-M-O-T-I-O-N, make a commotion

To S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Walrus: (rapping) Two-thirds of the world is covered with ocean

And human pollution makes a big commotion

Because every single living thing plays the price

When global warming melts the ocean's ice

Burning fossil fuels in the enemy

That's messing up the ocean's chemistry

The water gets warm, sea levels get higher

Makes a warm-blooded animal like me perspire

Sea Creatures: If you L-O-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, love the ocean

You gotta S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Make a C-O-M-M-O-T-I-O-N, make a commotion

To S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Shark: Over F-I-S-H-I-N-G

Spells trouble for a little old shark like me

When fishing fleets are super-sized

My very survival is jeopardized

That high-tech gear is mighty clever

But once we're gone, we're gone forever

I've heard that shark-fin soup tastes great

But slow don, people, before it's too late

Sea Creatures: If you L-O-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, love the ocean

You gotta S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Make a C-O-M-M-O-T-I-O-N, make a commotion

To S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Fish: Carbon D-I-O-X-I-D-E

Spells danger for tropical fish such as we

Planes, trains, automobiles and ships burns fuels

But keep those emissions out of our pool

For those evil chemicals posses the power

To turn our ocean from sweet to sour

Acid destroys the coral we treasure

For food and refuge and leisure

Sea Turtle: My turn. (rapping) Warmer seas means a big increase

In the frequency and power of catastrophes

These tidal waves, hurricanes and tsunamis

Cause erosion, floods and all kind of disease

They destroy my beachfront properties

Which, in turn, endangers my species

So all of us creatures in the deep blue seas

Are singing loud so you'll hear our pleas

Sea Creatures: If you L-O-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, love the ocean

You gotta S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N, save the ocean

Make a C-O-M-M-O-T-I-O-N, make a commotion

To S-A-V-E the O-C-E-A-N

Fish: All together now.

Sea Creatures: Save the ocean

Walrus: Yeah, you gotta save the ocean, y'all.

Fish: Yeah.
