Underneath the water, where everything is pretty
I met the girls and we went swimming
Held my breath until finally I died
And I left my friends for the other side
Everything was gold, and everything was green
I saw a sea monkey king and a sea monkey queen
Fed me cottage cheese and chicken of the sea
Then they sent me on my way with a kiss on the cheek
(Chorus)
Ooh la la, ooh ee cha cha
Ooh la la, cha cha cha
Ooh la la, ooh ee cha cha
Ooh la, cha cha cha
One two three four five
Once I caught a fish alive
Six seven eight nine ten
But I let him go again
Why did you let him go?
Because he bit my finger so
Which one did he bite?
This little finger on the right
Repeat Chorus
I laughed with the clams, I gambolled with the sharks
Whispered secrets with the starfish 'til my heart it tore apart
Ask me no more questions, I'll tell you no more lies
About my sweet little swim to the other side
