Artist/Band: Beatles
Lyrics for Song: Octopus's Garden
Lyrics for Album: Abbey Road



I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
He'd let us in, knows where we've been
In his octopus's garden in the shade
I'd ask my friends to come and see
In an octopus's garden with me
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade

We would be warm below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head on the sea bed
In an octopus's garden near a cave
We would sing and dance around
because we know we can't be found
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade

We would shout and swim about
The coral that lies beneath the waves
Oh what joy for every girl and boy
Knowing they're happy and they're safe
We would be so happy you and me
No one there to tell us what to do
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden with you
in an octopus's garden with you
in an octopus's garden with you


Octopus's Garden

Released on the Beatles' final studio album, Abbey Road, 'Octopus's Garden' stands as a gentle, acoustic ballad that captures the group's evolving sound in 1969. Written by Paul McCartney and credited to the entire band, the track features a distinctive, repetitive guitar riff that drives a tender melody about a child's fascination with an octopus. The song's relaxed tempo and soft instrumentation reflect the introspective mood of the album's closing side, marking a departure from the high-energy rock of their earlier work. As one of the most recognizable tracks in the Beatles' discography, it remains a staple of their catalog, celebrated for its emotional sincerity and melodic simplicity.
