You dream about goin' 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

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 they roll

The fish on the land ain't happy They sad 'cause 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 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 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 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 play the flute The carpe play the harp

The plaice play the bass And they soundin' sharp

The bass play the brass The chub play the tub

The fluke is the duke of soul That 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 And oh, that blowfish blow

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
