The seaweed is al ways greener
In somebody el se's lake
You dream about go ing up there
But that is a bi g mistake
Just look at the world around you
R ight here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
W hat 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 su n they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea
Down here all the fi sh is happy
As off through the wa ves they roll
The fish on the la nd ain't happy
They sad 'cause they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
T hey in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry
G uess who's gon' be on the plate
Under the sea
Under the sea
Nobody beat us
Fry us and eat us
In fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the se a 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 sturgeon an' the ray
They get the ur ge 'n' start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under the sea
The ne wt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The pla ice play the bass
And they soundin' sharp
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fl uke is the duke of soul
(Yeah)
The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it's at
An' o h that blowfish blow
Under the sea
U nder the sea
W hen the sardine
Begin the beguine
It's music to me
What do they g ot? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean b and
Each little clam here
know how to jam here
Under the s ea
Each little slug here
Cuttin' a r ug here
Under the s ea
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
