In An Octopus' Garden

I was just listening to Pandora, my Internet music service, when I heard this cute song which somehow missed me. It’s by Ringo Starr, from the Beatles’ 1969 “Abbey Road” album. A quirky little thing, but given the trash that comes to our radio station, this is a lot of innocent fun:

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
