Underwater Moonlight

Lyrics

He was white and she was white as only statues are
 Fifty years they stood there looking stupid by a jar
 One night in mid-august when the moonlight got too strong
 They climbed off their pedastal and then they sang this song
 Past the gun implacement and the bones as white as bleach
 Through the rats and ivy till they came out on a beach
 Out into the ocean till they disappeared from view
 Honey, when it gets you there's just nothing you can do
 Underwater moonlight sets the body free
 Underwater moonlight baby you and me
 Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
 He was pink and she was pink and onward they did row
 Didn't see the giant squid though, it was fairly slow
 When they hit the bottom they were well and truly dead
 The statues took their place and then they rowed back home instead
 Underwater moonlight, take your baby down
 Underwater moonlight, watch you baby drown with love
 And in the moonlight - Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
 (there are a few quiet lines here I cannot make out)
 Once again
 I can take you down - Moonlight
 Below the sea - Moonlight
 Why don't you feed the fish? - Moonlight
 I'll make you feed the fish - Moonlight
 I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
 I'll watch you feed the fish - Moonlight
 Underwater moonlight sets the body free
 Underwater moonlight baby, you and me
 Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
 Underwater moonlight
