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 an octopuses garden in shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
An octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be, underneath the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
We would be warm, below the storm
In a little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our heads, on the sea beds
In an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
Because we know we cannot be found
I'd like to be, underneath 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 every girl and boy
Knowing that we're happy and we're safe
We would be so happy you and me
No one can tell us what to do
I'd like to be
Underneath the sea
In an octopus's garden with you
