i'd like to be
under the sea
in an octopus's garden
in the shade
he'd let us in
knows where we've been
in this octopus's garden
in the shade
i'd ask my friends to come and see
an octopus's garden with me
we would be warm
below the storm
in our little hideaway beneath the waves
resting our head on the seabed
in an octopus's garden near a cave
we would sing and dance around
because we know we can't be found
now werkin9 on pudding 2gether Skewed i
