Underwater lyrics - Boy George

Put your feet in the water if you want to feel free

I love it when you shave your head and how you walk that stare in me

Flickering lights in your head going from red to green

And I'm scared to cross the road for fear of what I'll see and feel

Maybe

The truth is underwater

Tell that immigration lawyer

This world belongs to me too

When I get there, will you show me your humanity?

When I'm lying on the beach

Will you feed me, mother Italy?

Or the goddesses of Greece

Will you treat me like a queen

Or a refugee?

Put your faith in the water

If you're brave enough to brave the storm

The ocean is a ruthless lover

But there would be no tears without her

And what about the moon?

Maybe

The truth is underwater

Can a shark ever be kind?

Can an octopus tell lies?

Is the starfish really a star?

You wanna know how small you are?

Swim beside a killer whale

A whale

It's not just a drop in the ocean

Oh, no, no

So Greta, just start a commotion

Maybe

The truth is underwater

Can a shark ever be kind?

Can an octopus tell lies?

Is the starfish really a star?

You wanna know how small you are?

Swim beside a killer whale

A killer whale

When I get there, will you show me your humanity?

When I'm lying on the beach

Will you feed me, mother Italy?

Or the goddesses of Greece

Will you treat me like a queen

Or a refugee?
