By the Sea - Highlights version

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 dream
If the business stays as good

Where I'd really like to go
In a year or so
Don't you wanna know?
Do you really wanna know?

By the sea, Mr. Todd, that's the life I'll covet
By the sea, Mr. Todd, ooh, 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 (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 grow old together
By the seaside, whoa-oh
By the beautiful sea

It'll be so quiet
That who'll come by it
Except a seagull, ooh-ooh
We shouldn't try it
Though, 'til it's legal for two-ooh

But a seaside wedding could be devised
Me rumpled bedding legitimized
Me eyelids'll flutter
I'll turn into butter
The moment I mutter, I do-ooh

Down by the sea
Married nice and proper
By the sea
Bring along your chopper
To the seaside, ooh-ooh
By the beautiful sea
