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

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 below the storm



in our little hideaway beneath the waves.

Resting our head

on the sea bed



in an octopus's garden near a cave.

We would sing and dance around

because we know we can't be found.

I'd like to be under the sea

in an octopus's garden

in the shade.



We would shout and swim about

the coral that lies beneath the waves.

Oh

what joy

for ev'ry girl and boy



knowing they're happy and they're safe.

We would be so happy you and me.

Noone there to tell us what to do

I'd like to be under the sea



in an octopus's garden with you.
