One day I got a piece of sand stuck inside,
And it bothered me all day.
I didn’t like it in my shell,
And I tried to make it go away, [make it go away].
But that was just the beginning of what
Now is a beautiful pearl;
And now I see that it wasn’t so bad,
And I’m the happiest oyster in the world.

Da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da.
Da, da, da, da, da, da.

Yes that was just the beginning of what
Now is a beautiful pearl,
And now I see that it wasn’t so bad,
And I’m the happiest oyster in the world.
[Happiest oyster in the world]
Yes, I’m the happiest oyster in the world.
[Happiest oyster in the world]
I’m the happiest oyster in the world.
