Underwater Woman Lyrics & Chords By They Might Be Giants
Underwater woman
Underwater lady
No one on the shore will ever know what's in her heart
Fiercely alive, will to survive
Able to thrive on her own
Self contained, properly trained
Hydroponically grown
Underwater woman
Breathing underwater
Brushing her hair, eating a pear
No one can tell when she cries
Away, away, away
She scans the ocean floor
With ultrasonic blips
Nothing but rocks and sand
And the broken wrecks of ships
Underwater woman
Underwater lady
No one on the shore will ever know what's in her heart
Laughing uncontrollably, who is she talking to?
Holding up a shell like it's a telephone
Frantically digging through a pile of old papers
Intently staring at a photograph
Underwater woman
Breathing underwater
Brushing her hair, eating a pear
No one can tell when she cries
Away, away, away
