Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Down by the seaside, where the waves crash,
Lives a little crab who always says "perhaps."
With a sideways shuffle and a cheeky grin,
You ask him a question, he'll pull you in.
(Chorus)
"Are you a master of the sand and sea?"
"Perhaps," he says with a look of glee.
"Do you dance at night when the moon is bright?"
"Perhaps," he chuckles, and scuttles out of sight.
(Verse 2)
"Do you wear a shell that's shining and grand?"
"Perhaps," he winks as he waves his clawed hand.
"Do you know the secrets of the ocean deep?"
"Perhaps," he mutters, making promises to keep.
(Chorus)
"Do you hide your treasure in the coral reef?"
"Perhaps," he nods, causing much disbelief.
"Are you friends with the fishes and the dolphins too?"
"Perhaps," he smirks, "but that's up to you."
(Bridge)
With every question, there's a dance and a prance,
This little crab sure knows how to enhance.
A mystery so deep, a riddle so fun,
In the salty sea, he's the cheeky one.
(Chorus)
"Do you tell tall tales of the sunken ships?"
"Perhaps," he whispers with a swish of his hips.
"Will you teach us how to scuttle and sway?"
"Perhaps," he teases, "another day."
(Verse 3)
"Are you the king of the sandy shore?"
"Perhaps," he laughs, "could you ask for more?"
"Do you ever get tired of saying 'perhaps'?"
"Perhaps," he winks, as he makes his lapse.
(Chorus)
"Do you dream of adventures far and wide?"
"Perhaps," he grins, with nothing to hide.
"Will we ever get a straight answer, please?"
"Perhaps," he says, moving with the breeze.
(Outro)
So if you meet this crab by the tide,
With questions and wonders, don't be denied.
For with every "perhaps," a mystery's spun,
In the land of the sea, where the laughter's begun.
