Down under the sea,
Where the whales sing and dive deep,
We chase and rope sharks,
Until it gets dark,
When the waves gently rock us to sleep.
Down under the sea,
My seahorse takes me,
On a ride through coral and caves.
We round up fish there,
Rescue mermaids so fair,
My seahorse and I are quite brave!
(repeat chorus)
Change the name of the fish and change the "prickly" to a fitting adjective. For example, 3 rainbow fish would be "Did you ever see such a "colorful" sight as three rainbow fish?
repeat the song replacing "swim" with other verbs such as: slide, swish, and splash.
