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 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 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 
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 an' 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 carp 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 
(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' oh that blowfish blow 

Under the sea 
Under the sea 
When the sardine 
Begin the beguine 
It's music to me 
What do they got? lot of sand 
We got a hot [bad word] band 
Each little clam here 
know how to jam here 
Under the sea 
Each little slug here 
Cuttin' [bad word] here 
Under the sea 
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
