Little Mermaid The Mysterious Fathoms Below Lyrics

Mysterious Fathoms Below Lyrics

Sailors: 

Heave ho, heave ho 

I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue 

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

Brave sailor beware, for a big 'un's a-brewin' 

Mysterious fathoms below 

Heave-ho, heave-ho 

I'll sing you a song of the king of the sea 

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

The ruler of all of the ocean 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 



Eric: 

Isn't this great? 



Grimsby: 

Oh yes, delightful. 



Eric: 

The salty sea air, the wind blowing in your face, I 

love it! 



Grimsby: 

You love it?I'm about to heave-ho myself! 



Sailors: 

Heave-ho, heave-ho 

I'll tell you a tale of the bottomless blue 

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

Look out, lad, a mermaid be waiting for you 

In mysterious fathoms below 



Grimsby: 

Eric, please!Get your royal keister down from there! 



Eric: 

Oh, Grim, nothing's going to...Woah! 



Grimsby: 

Eric, Eric!It is not at all princely...Oh, I loathe storms! 



Sailor: 

Ha!This ain't no storm.That's a storm!Way out there... 



The king of the ocean is angry 

So trouble's a-brewin' out there 

I'm tellin' you, lad, when King Triton is mad 

How the waves'll buck, rock to and fro 

Hold on, good luck, as down you go 



Sailors: 

For Triton is king of the bottomless blue 

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

Beware of the magic his merpeople do 

In mysterious fathoms below 

Heave-ho, heave-ho 



Eric: 

Who are they singing about, sailor?Who is King Triton? 



Sailor: 

Why, ruler of the merpeople, lad!And a powerful lord is he! 



Eric: 

The merpeople? 



Sailor: 

Aye, and they's lives down there, 

With the bodies of fish and the rest of 'em human!

Yes, it's what fifty years at sea will do to you.

Make fun of yer like! But I seen 'em!Blast!
