Down the Well

Template:Song "Down the Well" is a song sung by SpongeBob SquarePants that was directed to Squidward Tentacles in the Season 4 episode "Wishing You Well." It played when SpongeBob was singing about the well while SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward were trapped inside. The reprise version played when SpongeBob and Patrick were digging for gold inside the well.

Lyrics

SpongeBob

Take a penny and some magic,

Even though your life is tragic.

(Squidward: Hey!)

You can throw all your dreams down the well.

Although every day the pain grows,

You'll ride unicorns on rainbows

If you throw all your dreams down the well.

When your life's come apart at the seams,

And you've given up all your dreams,

Here is just the means to make those dreams come true.

No more suffering, no more sighing,

No more pain and no more crying

(Squidward: I'm not crying!)

If you throw all your dreams down the well.

Reprise

SpongeBob

Oh, the magic has gone missing,

And everyone's still wishing,

But their dreams have fallen flat upon the ground.

You'll find magic under rubble,

So, Patrick, grab a shovel,

And here is where the magic can be found.

We're at the bottom of a well,

But man won't it be swell,

When we make everyone's wishes all come true?
