Gregory Isaacs - Under The Sea lyrics

The seaweed is always greener In some parts it's always cleaner You dream about going up there But that is a big mistake Just look at the world around you Right here on the ocean shaft Such wonderful things surround you What more are you looking for? Under the sea, under the sea Darling, it's better, down there it's wetter, take it from me Up on the step they worked all day, out in the sun they sail away While we're devoting, full time to floating 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 The fish in the bowl is lucky They in for a worser fate One day when the boss get hungry Guess who's going in the plate Under the sea, under the sea Nobody beats us, fry us and eat us in frica**ee We what the land folks loves to cook Under the sea we're off the hook We got no troubles, life is all 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 and 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 ba** and they sounding sharp The ba** play the bra**, the chub play the tub The fluke is the duke of soul The ray he can play, the lings on the strings The trout rocking out, the black fish, she sings The smelt and the sprat, they know where it's at And oh, that blow fish blow Under the sea, under the sea When the sardine begin the beguine, it's music to me 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 Each little slug here, cutting a rug here, under the sea Each little snail here know how to wail here That's why it's hotter under the water We in luck here down in the muck here under the sea
