Lyrics Vixen of the Deep - The Speed of Sound in Seawater

Vixen of the Deep

Big beautiful eyes
If I look too long, I might capsize
If I could locate your thighs
I’d give you something to remember me by
Vixen of the Deep
Oh, the secrets we must keep
Hush, love
Shut your beak
We must not speak
We’ll elope in the night
A spineless man and invertebrate wife
Won’t we be quite the sight?
Our twelve legs all dangling together so tight
Vixen of the Deep
Oh, the secrets our love breeds
I just can’t wait to meet
Your family
Ink black
Your eyes won’t hold contact
Why can’t you just look your poor love in the eye?
Is it something that I did?
Or is this numbness your birthright?
Just look at me Vixen, like the night our eyes first met
I’ve never seen those saucers look so wet
While there may be other fish in the sea
None of them are as committed to you as me
Our inability to breed
Means nothing to me
Honestly
