Deep Dive ft. Martyn Peters, Lisa Davies & Dylan Lloyd Lyrics

Is that a boy on the floor

Yes it's a boy on the floor

Charlotte check for a pulse

We have to check he's alive

'Cause every second of time is now precious

Mister can you hear us

On his breast, there's a crest

Mundane school, established eighteen eighty one

But doesn't look like the uniform that I have on

Mister can you hear us

I think he's coming around

Do you know your name

Do you know where you're from

Do you know the year

Do you know what's wrong

My name is Bernie, from Mundane

It's twenty twenty one

Twenty twenty one

Oh no, the truth has occurred to me

Fifty-odd years, that's a record

It's got to be

You've done a deep dive

I've never seen a kid do a deep dive as deep as this

There must be something really wrong

For you to fall from so long away

I've never seen a kid do a deep dive this deep

What's happened to make life for him so bleak

It's mostly those with a midlife crisis

Tryna hold on to a time that's nicest

A moment in life that you really wanna go

That you loved so deep

And you really wanna know how it felt to be under that spell

A pinch of relief for when life is hell

The perculiar thing is the time he's in

Ninety sixty five that the pendulum swings to

Surely kids of the modern age don't need nostalgia or glory days

If anything, I'd say he's incomplete

To dive so deep, lying in this street

So dust him off, get him on his feet

We'll give him a room and some food to eat

But how have you arrived at somewhere so far back in time

That's the question on my mind

I've met deep divers multiple times

But never a kid before his prime

So how has life been so unkind

To make him wanna emigrate and wave goodbye

We've never seen this one before

It's a first for me that's for sure

We've got to get him back through the record store

But first find out what on earth he's here for

The boy is lost, it's plain to see

But this is not his place to be
