Let's dive into another world
to see what lies beneath the sea.
We'll look for treasures gilt and pearled.
So, won't you please explore with me?
We'll challenge dolphins to a race
or seize the opportunity
to kiss a mermaid's flirty face.
So won't you please explore with me?
Discover where sea serpents sleep -
a greater thrill there could not be -
to jab at tentacles that creep.
So, won't you please explore with me?
Adventures could then fill a book
when we return from our journey.
But first we must go have a look.
So, won't you please explore with me?
