Lyrics
- Squidward/Nicolas Carr: Beautiful dreamer,
- Out on the sea,
- Mermaids are chanting
- The wild Lorelei;
- Over the streamlet,
- Vapors are borne
- Waiting to fade
- At the bright coming morn.
- Beautiful dreamer,
- Beam on my heart.
- E'en as the morn
- On the streamlet and sea;
- Then will all clouds
- Of sorrow depart,
- Beautiful dreamer,
- Wake unto me!
- Squidward: Lalalala la, ladada da da da!
- Tempo! Tempo!
