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'll 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, 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 Each little clammy in his pajamies Under the sea Each little slug here cuttin' a rug here Under the sea Each little snail here know how to wail here Under the sea...
