Ballerina Octopus
Twirling alone in the ocean blue
Ballerina Octopus
I’d love to dance with you

I stretch out my tentacles
Then wrap them around
I can dance so gracefully
I don’t make a sound
I can spin, pirouette, plié
Bend and then leap up
I do not need my ballet shoes
I use my suction cups

Ballerina Octopus
Dancing alone, fancy and free
Searching in the deep blue sea
For someone to dance with me

The squid shows off his speckled suit
Then he turns to stripes
Then again from pale to dark
He’s certainly my type
I’ve found my premier danseur
He is just my height
We will twirl with arm in arm
Oh, we shall dance all night

Ballerina Octopus
Let’s take a bow, I’ll show you how
Just stretch out your tentacles
Then wrap them all around

Ballerina Octopus
Together we twirl in the ocean blue
Ballerina Octopus
It’s a pleasure to dance with you
It’s a pleasure to dance with you
