Submarine Lyrics

I need you like a fish needs a submarine

I need you like a broke cigarette machine

If wanting's enough then wanting's not tough

I need you like a tall glass of kerosene

I need you

I don't need you

Don't quit now on me baby

Don't fall back under that sway

Don't jeopardise his rehabilitation

Or take his punishment away

Like the tide going out

I'm accustomed to waiting

Waiting till you come back in

Like nothing ever happened

Just a little damage

But not beyond repair

Not beyond repair

The strip clubs on the corner

And the Chinese restaurant

The children of an older God

In rows of white Toyotas

To take you anywhere you want

Like the tide going out

All the driftwood and plastic

Is waiting for the moon to rise

And summon up the ocean

Take them back into the ocean

Again
