He was white and she was white
 As only statues are.
 50 years they stood there looking
 Stupid by a jar.
 One night in mid-August when the moonlight got too strong
 They climbed off their pedestal and then they sang this song.

 Past the gun emplacement and the
 Bones as white as bleach.
 Through the rats and ivy 'til they
 Came out on a beach.
 Out into the ocean 'til they disappeared from view. 
 Honey when it gets you there's just nothing you can do. 

 Underwater moonlight, sets the body free
 Underwater moonlight, baby you and me 
 Underwater moonlight (x2)

 He was pink and she was pink
 And onward they did row.
 Didn't see the giant squid, though,
 It was fairly slow. 
 When they hit the bottom they were well and [bad word] dead.
 The statues took their place, and then they rode back home instead.

 Underwater moonlight, take your baby down
 Underwater moonlight, watch your baby drown
 And in the moonlight
 Underwater moonlight (x 3) 

 I can take you down
 Through the sea (moonlight)
 You can feed the fish (moonlight)
 Why don't you feed the fish? (moonlight)
 Why don't you feed the fish? (moonlight)

 Underwater moonlight, sets the body free
 Underwater moonlight, baby you and me 
 Underwater moonlight (x4)
