Pere Ubu - Rhapsody In Pink lyrics

rate me

I spent the day under the water, today.

I was a big pink ball at the bottom of the sea,

the broad green sea.

The fish came and looked at me,

looked at me at the bottom of the sea.

There I was for all the fish to see,

sitting on the yellow sand at the bottom of the sea,

the broad green sea.

The sea is a big, green lens.

The birds looked down at me,

sitting on the sand at the bottom of the sea,

the broad green sea.

And the waves rolled in,

the waves rolled in,

and I rolled in.

The waves rolled out,

and the waves rolled out.

The waves rolled out and I rolled out.

Back & forth,

and back & forth at the bottom of the sea,

the broad green sea.

I spent the day under the water.

I spent the night on the beach.

I was beached.

Beached!

Then I got bleached.

Bleached!

Washed up.

Bleached white as a bone.

So...

So, that's my story.

Sad but true.

(Let this be a lesson to you)
