|
The seaweed is always greener |
|
In somebody else's lake |
|
You dream about going up there |
|
But that is a big mistake |
|
Just look at the world around you |
|
Right here on the ocean floor |
|
Such wonderful things surround you |
|
What more is you looking for |
|
Under the sea, under the sea |
|
Darlin' it's better |
|
Down where it's wetter, |
|
Take it from me |
|
Up on the shore they work all day |
|
Out in the sun they slave away |
|
While we devotin' |
|
Full time to floatin' |
|
Under the sea |
|
Down here all the fish is happy |
|
As off through the waves day roll |
|
The fish on the land ain't happy |
|
They sad 'cause they're in a bowl |
|
But fish in the bowl is lucky |
|
They're in for a worser fate |
|
One day when the boss gets hungry |
|
Guess whos goin' be on the plate (uh-oh) |
|
Under the sea, under the sea |
|
Nobody beats us |
|
Fry us and eat us in fricasee |
|
We what the land folks love to cook |
|
Under the sea we off the hook |
|
We got no troubles life is the bubbles |
|
Under the sea, under the sea |
|
Since life is sweet here |
|
We got the beat here naturally |
|
Even the strugeon an' the ray |
|
They get the urge an' start to play |
|
We got the spirit |
|
You got to hear it under the sea |
|
The newt play the flute |
|
The carp play the harp |
|
The plaice play the bass |
|
And they're soundin sharp. |
|
The bass play the brass |
|
The chub play the tub |
|
The fluke is the duke of soul |
|
(yeah) |
|
They ray he can play |
|
He lings on the strings |
|
He trout rockin' out |
|
The blackfish she sings |
|
The smelt and the sprat |
|
They know where it's at |
|
An' Oh. That blowfish blow |
|
Under the sea (under the sea) |
|
Under the sea (under the sea) |
|
When the sardine |
|
Begin the beguine it's music to me |
|
What do they got, a lot of sand |
|
We got a hot crustacean band |
|
Each little clam here |
|
Know how to jam here under the sea |
|
Each little slug here |
|
Cutin' a rug here under the sea |
|
Each little snail here |
|
Know how to wail here |
|
That's why it's hotter under the water |
|
Ya' we in luck here |
|
Down in the muck here under the sea!! |
