Can't recall when I found the tune originally, but I was cleaning up an SD card last night & came across the mp3 file. A quick search on the net yielded the video on utube. 
 
An original composition by Kip Addotta. Here are the lyrics for those who took a pass on the video: 
 
It was April the forty-first 
Being a quadruple leap year 
I was driving in downtown Atlantis 
My barracuda was in the shop 
So I was in a rented stingray 
And it was overheating 
 
So I pulled into a Shell Station 
They said I'd blown a seal 
I said, "Fix the damn thing 
And leave my private life out of it 
Okay pal?" 
 
While they were doing that 
I walked over to a place called the Oyster Bar, a real dive 
But I knew the owner 
He used to play for the Dolphins 
I said "Hi Gil" 
You have to yell, he's hard of herring 
 
Think I had a wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
Wet dream 
 
Gil was also down on his luck 
Fact is he was barely keeping his head below water 
I bellied up to the sandbar 
He poured me the usual 
 
Rusty snail, hold the grunion 
Shaken not stirred 
With a peanut butter and jellyfish sandwich on the side 
Heavy on the mako 
 
I slipped him a fin 
On porpoise 
I was feeling good 
I even dropped a sand dollar in the box for Jerry's squids 
For the halibut 
 
Well the place was crowded 
We were packed in like sardines They were all there to listen to the big band sounds of Tommy Dorsal 
What sole 
 
Tommy was rockin' the place with a very popular tuna 
Salmon Chanted Evening 
And the stage was surrounded by screaming groupers 
Probably there to see the bass player 
 
One of them was this cute little yellowtail 
And she's giving me the eye 
So I figured this is my chance for a little fun 
You know, piece of Pisces 
 
But she said things I just couldn't fathom 
She was too deep, seemed to be under a lot of pressure 
Boy, could she drink 
She drank like a . . . 
She drank a lot 
 
I said "What's your sign" 
She said "Aquarium" 
I said "Great, let's get tanked" 
 
Think I had a wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
Wet dream 
 
I invited her to my place for a midnight bait 
I said "Come on baby, it'll only take a few minnows" 
She threw me that same old line 
"Not tonight, I gotta haddock" 
 
And she wasn't kidding either 
Cause in came the biggest, meanest looking haddock 
I'd ever seen come down the pike 
He was covered with mussels 
 
He came over to me and said 
"Listen, shrimp, don't you come trollin' around here" 
What a crab 
This guy was steamed 
I could see the anchor in his eyes 
 
I turned to him, I said 
"A-balone, you're just being shellfish" 
Well, I knew it was going to be trouble and so did Gil 
‘Cause he was already on the phone to the cods 
 
The haddock hits me with a sucker punch 
I catch him with a left hook 
He eels over 
It was a fluke but there he was 
Lying on the deck, flat as a mackerel 
Kelpless 
 
I said "Forget the cods Gil 
This guy's gonna need a sturgeon" 
Well, the yellowtail was impressed with the way I landed her boyfriend 
She came over to me, she said 
"Hey, big boy, you're really a game fish 
What's your name" 
I said "Marlin" 
 
Think I had a wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
Wet dream 
 
Well, from then on we had a whale of a time 
I took her to dinner, I took her to dance 
I bought her a bouquet of flounders  
And then I went home with her 
And what did I get for my trouble 
A case of the clams 
 
Think I had a wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
 
Wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh 
 
Wet dream 
Cruisin' thru the Gulf Stream 
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
