"The Crab / Waterbaby" lyrics

"The Crab / Waterbaby"

Around the cove, walking, that's where I found him
Upside down in the leaving tide
Spun out and prone, the crab lay there reaching
Casting off his hardened shell

I said dude, I think I know how you're feeling
You know it's plain for all to see
You can't help but speak about it
It's our insides and now

We're translucent see
Goddamn permeable
We're translucent see
Goddamn permeable

I need a ceremony
I need a ritual
I need a ceremony
I need a ritual

I returned my friend the right way
He took off with a sideways glance
So glad to meet you waterbaby
Now let's go give this day a chance

We're translucent see
Goddamn permeable
We're translucent see
Goddamn permeable

I need a ceremony
I need a ritual
I need a ceremony
I need a ritual
I need a ceremony
I need a ritual
