What kind of lens will give my photo's that "fisheyed" look?

  You answered your own question. There are lenses specifically designed to do that. They are called, you guessed it, fisheye lenses. Look at lens descriptions from companies like Sigma, Tamron, etc. They will have lenses specifically labeled fisheye.

  The alternative is to use PSP or photoshop to introduce the effect yourself. It's called barrel or spherical distortion usually. Admittedly, nothing beats a fisheye for field of view, and that is their main strength.
