Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The seaweed is always greener
In somebody's else's lake
You dream about going up there
But that will be 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?
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Down here all the fish is happy
As off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain't happy
They're sad 'cause they're in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss gets hungry
Guess who's gon' be on the plate
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
