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? Whoa, no! 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 devotin' Full time to floatin' Under the sea Down here all the fish is happy As off through the waves they roll The fish on the land ain't happy They said 'cause they in their bowl But fish in a bowl is lucky They're in for a worser fate One day when the boss gets hungry Guess who's gon' be on the plate? Oh, no! Under the sea Under the sea Nobody eat us Fry us and eat us In fricassee We are what 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) Under the sea (under the sea) Since life is sweet here We got the beat here Naturally (naturally-y-y-y) Even the sturgeon and the ray They got the urge to start to play We got the spirit You got to hear it Under the sea Well, the newt play the flute The carp play the harp Plaice play the bass And they soundin' sharp Bass play the brass The chub play the tub Fluke is the duke of soul The ray he can play The lings on the string The trout's rockin' out The blackfish can sing Smelt and the sprat They know where it's at Whoa, that blowfish blow Under the sea Under the sea When the sardines Begin to 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 Cuttin' a rug here Under the sea Each little snail here Know how to wail here That's why it's hotter Under the water Yah, we in luck here Down in the muck here Under the sea
