Fathoms Below Lyrics

[PILOT]
I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue

[SAILORS]
And it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho

[PILOT]
Brave sailor, beware, cause a big 'uns a-brewin'

[SAILORS]
In mysterious fathoms below
Heave-ho

[PILOT]
I'll sing you a song of the king of the sea

[SAILORS]
An' it's hey to the starboard, heave-ho

[PILOT]
The ruler of all of the oceans is he

[PILOT & SAILORS]
In mysterious fathoms below
Fathoms below, below
From whence wayward westerlies blow
Where Triton is king
And his merpeople sing
In mysterious fathoms below

[PRINCE ERIC, spoken]
Isn't this perfection, Grimsby? Out on the open sea, surrounded by nothing but water!

[GRIMSBY]
Oh, yes, it's simply... delightful

[PRINCE ERIC, sung]
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!

[GRIMSBY]
As for me, I'm about to heave ho!

[PILOT, spoken]
Back to work!

[PILOT & SAILORS, sung]
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

[GRIMSBY, spoken]
King of the sea? Why, that's nautical nonsense - nothing but a superstition!

[PILOT, sung]
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

[PILOT AND SAILORS]
Hold on, good luck, as down you go

[ARIEL]
Aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
A-aa-aah, a-aa-aaa-aah

[PRINCE ERIC, spoken]
What is that? Do you hear something?

[GRIMSBY, Spoken]
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!

[PRINCE ERIC]
That's not the life for me, Grimsby

[ARIEL]
Aa-aa-aah, a-aa-aah
Aa-aa-ahh, a-aa-aaa-aah

[PRINCE ERIC]
There it is again!

[PILOT]
We ought to head back to shore, your majesty

[GRIMSBY]
Indeed, we should!

[PRINCE ERIC]
Not while I'm captain. Now follow that voice! To the ends of the earth if we have to!

[PILOT]
Aye-aye, Captain!

[PILOT AND SAILORS, sung]
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
