*****
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 lookin' for?
Under the sea under the sea
Darling 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're devoting full time to floating
Under the sea
Down here all the fish is happy as off through the waves they roam
The fish on the land ain't happy is sad 'cos they in the bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky they in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry guess who got me on the plate
Oh no
Under the sea under the sea
Nobody beat us fry us and eat us in fricasee
We're what the land folks love to cook
Under the sea we're 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 sturgeon and the ray they get the urge 'n' start to play
We got the spirit you got to hear it
Under the sea
The newt played the flute the carp played the harp
The plaice played the bass and they sounded sharp
The bas played the brass the chubb played the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
The ray he can play the lings on the strings
The trout rockin' out the black fish she sings
The smelt and the spratt they know where it's at
And oh that bloe fish blow
Yeah 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 cutting a rug here under the sea
Each little snail here know how to wail here
That's why it's hotter under the water
Are we in luck here down in the muck here
Under the sea
