Underwater Moonlight

He was white and she was white as only statues are
50 years they stood there looking stupid by a jar
One night in mid-August when the moonlight got too strong
They climbed off their pedestal and then they sang this song

Past the gun emplacement and the bones as white as bleach
Through the rats and ivy 'til they came out on a beach
Out into the ocean 'til 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 rode back home instead

Underwater moonlight, take your baby down
Underwater moonlight, watch your baby drown
And in the moonlight, underwater moonlight
Underwater moonlight, underwater moonlight

I can take you down through the sea
(Moonlight)
You can feed the fish
(Moonlight)

Why don't you feed the fish?
(Moonlight)
Why don't 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
