The Cure – Down Under lyrics
Around the sea green pool we spin
The mermaid singing songs
To pull us in
To swim with him she slides up slow
To fall... Down under

Bright burning eyes the only clue
To who plays what plays when plays
You just blew my cue
To drown his tears
For all in wonder

Unlucky start I smile
But twice is helpless
Fizz down nice as black with ice
Disguise the stroke
Entice them out
To call their number

Lean in and breathe in
As low as you choose
Remember not all games are won
By the last one... To lose...

Remember...

Her tail I tell his head we break
The trick is how to fake the first mistake
To make them take
The easy choice
Too close to care how

But wet spot sometime changes stripe
And day to night
If every wrong is right
I dry your eye
You bite my lip
We're almost there now

Lean in and breathe in
As low as you choose
Remember not all games are won...
