I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see-ee
An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade

We would be warm (ooh-ooh)
Below the storm (ooh-ooh)
In our little hideaway beneath the waves (ah ah ah-ah-ah-ah-aaah)
Resting our head (ooh-ooh)
On the sea bed (ooh-ooh)
In an octopus's garden near a cave (aah aah ah-ah-ah-ah-aaah)
We would sing and dance arou-hound
Because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade

(Aaah aah-aaah)
(Aaah aah-aaah)
(Aaah aah-aaah)
(Aah aah aah aah-aaah)

We would shout (aah-aah) and swim about (ooh-ooh)
The coral that lies beneath the waves (lies beneath the ocean waves)
Oh, what joy (aah-aah) for every girl and boy (ooh-ooh)
Knowing they're happy and they're safe (happy and they're safe)
We would be so happy, you and me
No-one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be (aah-aah) under the sea
In an octopus's garden (aah-aah-aaah) with you
In an octopus's garden (aah-aah-aaah) with you
In an octopus's garden (aah-aah-aaah) with you
