[Rap]
I'm diving, I'
m falling, I'm
trippin' like
Jack
I'm going for
the sunken tre
asure, and I'm
never coming
back
I got the deep
blue sea belo
w me, and the
devil up above
And somewhere
in between, I
think I fell i
n love.
You see, I've
never loved an
other, I'll ne
ver love above
her
I've never see
n Australia, b
ut I think I'm
going under
Down under, si
nking in the f
antasy, I'm go
ing down
So, if you see
me drowning h
old my nose an
d let me drown
.
[Spoken]
I'm going down
.
I'm going down
.
Jump around.
To the sound.
[Verse 1]
You see, I'm l
ooking for the
Queen Fish, m
aybe you have
seen her.
She always ste
als the scene
with a body th
at's obscener
Than the cutes
t of the cutie
s, flowing gra
ce and beauty
From the brain
to the booty,
the darling o
f the sea.
[Spoken]
Now, I know I'
m not the only
fisherman who
's ever tried
To lure the La
dy Queen Fish,
and keep her
fancy by his s
ide
But how I thin
k about her al
l the time, it
's tearing me
apart
And so, today
the hunt begin
s: I'm off to
capture Lady's
heart.
[Pre-Chorus]
Because, I've
never loved an
other, I'll ne
ver love above
her
I've never see
n Australia, b
ut I think I'm
going under
Down under, I
wonder why she
wouldn't want
to be
With the one w
ho loves her h
arder than the
Great Coral R
eef
[Chorus]
I'm going down
, to the botto
m of the sea.
It's the sea o
f love.
Come and dive
with me.
And, if I neve
r, ever, ever
leave this sea
,
The water's wa
rm. It's fine
with me.
[Rap]
Thar she blows
, oh my lady a
pproaches,
Swimming swimm
ingly and maki
ng me lose com
posure.
Caught unaware
s, man, I'm so
unprepared, d
amn.
I could drop a
nchor with the
weight of her
stares, but
[Verse 2]
What are the c
hances that my
honesty entra
nces
And enhances m
y advances wit
h the threat o
f romance, or
Maybe perhaps
that when she
knows just wha
t my stance is
And exactly wh
at my plan is,
she'll go swi
mming away int
o the
Arms of anothe
r handsome und
erwater lover?
It seems that
many fishermen
have knocked
upon her door
And, it seems
that many sea
men have crash
ed upon her sh
ores
Allow me to re
cap for those
at home keepin
g score:
[Spoken]
We got the sea
men from the
east, the sea
men from the w
est,
Sea-men from A
ustralia, Thai
land, and Buda
pest,
We got the sea
men from Iran
, Siam, Sudan,
and Pakistan,
Sea-men from B
ulgaria, Paris
, and yeah, Ja
pan.
[Pre-Chorus]
But, still, I'
ve never loved
another, I'll
never love ab
ove her
She takes away
my oxygen, I
think I'm goin
g under
Torn asunder,
what a blunder
. In all the s
even seas
You'll never f
ind nobody bet
ter than me.
(Pause)
[Chorus]
I'm going down
, to the botto
m of the sea.
The fantasy of
love.
Come dive with
me.
And, if I neve
r, ever, ever
leave this sea
,
The water's wa
rm. It's fine
with me.
I'm going down
, to the botto
m of the sea.
The fantasy of
love.
Come dive with
me.
And, yes, I kn
ow there are o
ther fish in t
he sea
She'll always
be, a queen to
me.
I'm going down
, to the botto
m of the sea.
The fanta-sea
of love.
Come dive with
me
And, though sh
e'll never fin
d another catc
h like me,
(Pause)
It doesn't mat
ter.
She's blind to
me.
