Mermaid
致命傷 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In somebody else's lake
You dream about going up there
But that is a big mistake
Just look at the world around you
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
What more is you lookin' for?
Under the sea
Under the sea
Darling it's better
Down where it's wetter
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea
Down here all the fish is happy
As off through the waves they roll
The fish on the land ain't happy
They sad 'cause they in their bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry
Guess who's gon' be on the plate?
Under the sea
Under the sea
Nobody beat us
Fry us and eat us
In fricassee
We what the land folks loves to cook
Under the sea we off the hook
We got no troubles
Life is the bubbles
Under the sea (Under the sea)
Under the sea (Under the sea)
Since life is sweet here
We got the beat here
Naturally (Naturally)
Even the sturgeon an' the ray
They get the urge 'n' start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it
Under the sea
The newt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The plaice play the bass
And they soundin' sharp
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of soul
(Yeah)
The ray he can play
The lings on the strings
The trout rockin' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it's at
An' oh that blowfish blow
Yeah, under the sea (Under the sea)
Under the sea (Under the sea)
When the sardine
Begin the beguine
It's music to me (It's music to me)
What do they got? A lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
Each little clam here
Know how to jam here
Under the sea
Each little slug here
Cuttin' a rug here
Under the sea
Each little snail here
Know how to wail here
That's why it's hotter
Under the water
Ya we in luck here
Down in the muck here
Under the sea
The song "Under The Sea" by The Little Mermaid's soundtrack über-producer, Howard Ashman, is an upbeat anthem of sorts for the underwater world. The song starts with a brilliant hook, "The seaweed is always greener / In somebody else's lake / You dream about going up there / But that is a big mistake," which establishes a dichotomy between the underwater world and the world on land. The theme of the song revolves around the idea that everything is better down in the ocean. The ocean-floor is full of "wonderful things," and the fish in their underwater world are "happy" and "off the hook". Life is easy, especially when compared to the "troubles" of life on land. In the last stanza, the creatures of the sea are celebrated as they create music with their unlikely instruments, showing us that they too have something to enjoy just like humans. Throughout "Under The Sea," Ashman specifically crafts metaphors to keep the song entertaining and stick to the theme of the underwater world as a fun and idyllic place.
Line by Line Meaning
The seaweed is always greener
Nothing is as attractive as something that is unattainable
In somebody else's lake
Something appears better when you are not a part of it and can only see it from a distance
You dream about going up there
You aspire for something that is unattainable or not worth achieving
But that is a big mistake
Trying to achieve something that is not worth it will only result in disappointment
Just look at the world around you
There are so many amazing things around us which we often ignore
Right here on the ocean floor
We often fail to appreciate the things that are closest to us
Such wonderful things surround you
We should learn to appreciate the things we have and the beauty that surrounds us
What more is you lookin' for?
Everything we need is already around us, there is nothing more to search for
Under the sea
Life is better down in the ocean
Darling it's better
Being underwater is better than being on land
Down where it's wetter
Life is better underwater
Take it from me
Believe what I say, I know what I am talking about
Up on the shore they work all day
People on land work hard every day to make a living
Out in the sun they slave away
People work tirelessly under the sun on land to earn their livelihood
While we devotin'
We are committed to something different
Full time to floatin'
We spend most of our time floating underwater
Down here all the fish is happy
Fish are happy underwater as it is their natural habitat
As off through the waves they roll
Fish explore the ocean by swimming through the waves
The fish on the land ain't happy
Fish that are kept out of the water are not happy
They sad 'cause they in their bowl
Fish that are confined to a small space are unhappy
But fish in the bowl is lucky
Fish that are kept in a bowl are fortunate compared to those that are on a plate
They in for a worser fate
Fish that are caught and cooked are destined for a worse fate
