Underwaterboys

 
Em 
We all know fata morgana 
Em 
She keeps herself to herself 
Em 
She likes the sound of explosions 
Em 
You know - some people need nothing else 
A 
She has a volatile nature - 
A 
Moves in a dangerous way 
Em 
All the creatures around her: 
Em 
They keep quiet, or she blows them away

Wha Diddle Iddle I do 
Em 
Down here - the underwaterboys...

Em 
there's always fast talking Jonny 
Em 
He used to get so ill 
Em 
He spent a while in the country 
Em 
Now he's clean and serene but he can't stand still 
A 
Little Nick wasn't happy - 
A 
He felt sick inside 
Em 
One day he jumped from the window 
Em 
Into the arms of a Wagnerian bride

Em 
And then there's old Uncle Charlie - 
Em 
He don't speak any more 
Em 
He lives one side of a mirror, 
Em 
A refugee from the chemical wars 
A 
A critical disposition - 
A 
He likes to eat his own hands 
Em 
His principle motivation 
Em 
Is a special secretion from a secret gland
