Ooh, Mr. Todd, I'm so happy!
I could eat you up, I really could
You know what I'd like to do, Mr. Todd
What I dreamed, if the business stays as good
Where I'd really like to go,
In a year or so
Don't you want to know?
Todd: "Of course"
Do you really want to know?
Todd: "Yes, I do"
By the sea, Mr. Todd, that's the life I covet
By the sea, Mr. Todd, oh I know you'd love it
You and me, Mr. T, we could be alone
In a house what we'd almost own
Down by the sea...
(Mr. Todd: "Anything you say...")
Wouldn't that be smashing?
Think how snug it'll be underneath our flannel
When it's just you and me and the English channel
In our cozy retreat kept all neat and tidy
We'll have chums over every Friday
By the sea
Don't you love the weather?
By the sea
We'll go out together
By the seaside, hoo-oh, by the beautiful sea
It'll be so quiet,
That who'll come by it
Except a seagull, hooh-ooh
We shouldn't try it
Until it's legal for two-hoo
But a seaside wedding could be devised,
Me rumpled bedding legitimized
Me eyelids'll flutter,
I'll turn into bu*ter
The moment I mutter "I do-hoo!"
Down by the sea
Married nice and proper
By the sea
Bring along your chopper
To the seaside, hoh-ooh,
By the beautiful sea...
