Octopus

歌詞

The octopus has 3 hearts And lives in caves below the sea Or in a beer can or a bath tub Or a puddle in the street Any fisherman can tell you When an octopus waves its arms It hypnotizes stools of fish All movement stops for miles Even the waves stand still All the witnesses have sworn And it's impossible to resist The urge to jump overboard (Pre-) That's why I try and stay away From seashore holidays But I know that no one has to know If I take an evening stroll Down to the end of the wooden peer Where the water's deep and cold If I should see an octopus Lift its arms out of the sea Or see its shadow rising up Cross the rooftops above the streets I'd follow those dancing limbs To the spinning edge of the sky Where all the boats fall off the world Into the octopus's eye (Pre- 1) That's why I know I shouldn't go On a cruise across the sea But I know that no one has to know If I take an evening stroll Down to the end of the wooden peer Where the water's deep and cold (Pre-) That's why I try and stay away From seashore holidays But I know that no one has to know If I take an evening stroll Down to the end of the wooden peer Where the water's deep and cold
