They Might Be Giants - Underwater Woman lyrics

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
