I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue
And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho
Brave sailor, beware, cause a big 'uns a-brewin'
In mysterious fathoms below
Heave-ho
I'll sing you a song of the king of the sea
An' it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho
The ruler of all of the oceans is he
In mysterious fathoms below
Fathoms below, below
From whence wayward westerlies blow
Where Triton is king
And his merpeople sing
In mysterious fathoms below
Isn't this perfection, Grimsby? Out on the open sea, surrounded by nothing but water!
Oh, yes, it's simply... delightful
The salt on your skin
And the wind in your hair
And the waves as they ebb and they flow
We're miles from the shore
And guess what, I don't care!
As for me, I'm about to heave ho!
Back to work!
I'll sing you a song of the king of the sea
An' it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho
The ruler of all of the oceans is he
In mysterious fathoms below
King of the sea? Why, that's nautical nonsense - nothing but a superst**ion!
The king of the ocean gets angry
An' when he gets angry, beware
I'm tellin' ya, lad, when King Triton is mad
How the waves'll buck, rock to and fro
Hold on, good luck, as down you go
Aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
A-aa-aah, a-aa-aaa-aah
What is that? Do you hear something?
My lord, please. Enough sea-faring! You've got to get back to court, to honor your father's dying wish and take up his crown!
That's not the life for me, Grimsby
Aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
Aa-aa-ahh, a-aa-aaa-aah
There it is again!
We ought to head back to shore, your majesty
Indeed, we should!
Not while I'm captain. Now follow that voice! To the ends of the earth if we have to!
Aye-aye, Captain!
There's mermaids out there in the bottomless blue
An' it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho
Watch out for 'em, lad, or you'll go to your ruin
In mysterious fathoms below
