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
Dm Darling it s better
G Down where it s wetter
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
Dm While we devotin
G 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 sad cause they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry
Guess who s gon be on the plate
Under the sea
Under the sea
Dm Nobody beat us
G Fry us and eat us
In fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the sea we off the hook
Dm We got no troubles
G Life is the bubbles
Under the sea
Under the sea
Dm Since life is sweet here
G We got the beat here
Naturally
Even the sturgeon an the ray
They get the urge n start to play
Dm We got the spirit
G You got to hear it
Under the sea
Am The newt play the flute
Em The carp play the harp
Am The plaice play the bass
Em And they soundin sharp
Am The bass play the brass
Em The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
Am The ray he can play
Em The lings on the strings
Am The trout rockin out
Em The blackfish she sings
Am The smelt and the sprat
Em They know where it s at
An oh that blowfish blow
Under the sea
Under the sea
Dm When the sardine
G Begin the beguine
It s music to me
What do they got? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
Dm Each little clam here
G know how to jam here
Under the sea
Dm Each little slug here
G Cuttin a rug here
Under the sea
Dm Each little snail here
G Know how to wail here
Dm That s why it s hotter
G Under the water
Dm Ya we in luck here
G Down in the muck here
Under the sea
