There was a cod, there was a hake
There was a lobster and a crab and a sea snake

There was a squid and a whale
And sliding on the rocks there was a sea snail

Everything beneath the sea
Gliding, sliding, swimming free
Jelly fish and things that glow
Swimming way down deep below

There was a cod, there was a hake
There was a lobster and a crab and a sea snake

There was a squid and a whale
And sliding on the rocks there was a sea snail

Life is in the waves that land
Crashing on the rocks or sand
Creatures moving everywhere
Would you like to join them there?

There is a cave, Oh so dark
And hiding just inside there is a big shark
He wants a meal but never fear
He can’t eat you if you don’t go near

Everything beneath the sea
Gliding, sliding, swimming free
Jelly fish and things that glow
Swimming way down deep below

There was a cod
