Lyrics
Electric Eel:
I have eel-ectricity in my tail
My body is smooth, I have no scales
I move like a snake beneath the sea
You can get a shock from me
I light up the ocean as I go
I can make a light bulb glow
Touching me will make you squeal
I?m an Electric Eel
Electric Ray:
I hide myself on the ocean floor
I?m shaped like a pancake, don?t you know
I can give two hundred volts
That?s quite a jolt
I?m an Electric Ray, I lurk below
Electric Eel:
I?ve traveled the sea from end to end
In search of an electric friend
A fish that?s living in the sea
Who won?t be shocked by me
Electric Ray:
I?ve been searching in the deep blue sea
For a fish who is related to me
I am looking for my kin
I won?t give in
Until I find my family
Electric Eel:
I?ll swim above the ocean floor
In search of a friend to call my own
Electric Ray:
I?ll swim around the deep blue sea
And give off electricity
Electric Eel:
Hey, I can see you down below
Electricity makes you glow
You give a charge ? you?re just like me
Howzabout some company
Electric Ray:
We?re electric fish living in the sea
You?re a distant cousin to me
You?re my extended family
I?d love your company
Electric Eel & Electric Ray:
We light up the ocean as we go
Our wattage makes the sea bed glow
We swim the ocean floor
From shore to shore
We are friends for ever more
We are friends for ever more
Friends for ever more
