How pleasant, bobbing along Bobbing along on the bottom Of the beautiful briny sea What a chance To get a better peep At the plants And creatures of the deep We glide Far below the rolling tide Serene Through the bubbly blue and green It's lovely, bobbing along Bobbing along on the bottom Of the beautiful briny sea What if the octopus The flounder and the cod Think we're rather odd It's fun to promenade Bobbing along Sing a song On the bottom Of the beautiful briny sea Look It's lovely, bobbing along Bobbing along on the bottom Of the beautiful briny sea What a chance To get a better peep At the plants And creatures of the deep It's grand When you're dancing on the sand Each glance Bubbles over with romance It's lovely, bobbing along Bobbing along through the water Where we get along swimmingly Far from the frenzy Of the frantic world above Two beneath the blue Could even fall in love Bobbing along Singing a song On the bottom Of the beautiful briny sea Bobbing along Singing a song On the bottom Of the beautiful briny Shimmering shiny Beautiful briny
