If you could see what I see in the sea
You'd say the sea is a swell place to be
Even more if you found what I found on the shore
You never would see it the same as before

Well you know there are fish, there are fish in the sea
But do you know what fish like to eat
They eat plankton and algae and slimy seaweed
And they go to school just like you and me

And you know there are whales, there are whales in the sea
And they spout and they spurt from the top of their heads
And they never get sleepy or lay down to bed
They sing little songs to each other instead

Once I found a shell on the shore
The oyster, he lived there inside of that shell
I built him a sand castle and he lived there quite well
Till the Ocean, she took him away to make pearls
Till the Ocean, she took him away to make pearls

And you know there are sharks, there are sharks in the sea
Some with sharp teeth above and beneath
But some just have gums and they can't harm a flea
That's 'cause they never would brush their teeth

And you know there are dolphins, dolphins at sea
They surf in the waves and they play hide 'n see
And they love to have fun just like you and me
Some dolphins are smarter than some people you meet

Once I found a bottle on the shore
Inside lived a crab, now it was his home
Moved in a little crab but then he had grown
Too big for the bottle that now was his home
Too big for the bottle that now was his home

If you could see what I see in the sea
You would say the sea is a swell place to be
Even more if you seen what I saw on the shore
You'd never see the sea the same way as before
No you'd never would see it the same as before
