Ever since I was young, my body
Has been the way that I am defined
But is this body just an empty vessel?
A ghost ship, without any light?
And I'm glad that I'm able to use it
I wouldn't say it gives me disgust
I just wish that I had one that's different
I just wish I had one I trust

I know its strengths and limitations
I know the things that people think are strange
I could learn to accept them, but why should I?
I could find some way that I could change
As an infant I was thought of as a mutant
Now I'm older, they think I am a star
But how can they think they know who I am
Any more than I know who they are?

But in the water's where it changes
In the water's where it changes

I wish that I was someone different
Who could take my achievements, be content
But I'm a nuclear disaster, I'm a toxic waste
Just a fire with nowhere I can vent
And I don't even feel human among humans
The costs are heavy even when I'm free
So I'll ignore red flags among the sand yachts
I mean really, how bad can it be?

But in the water's where it changes
In the water's where it changes

"What's in the sea that I can see through the binoculars
Dragging people under the waves like an octopus?
Sound the alarm! It must mean harm!
First the sand yachts, then the lot of us!
It looks like something I've never seen before
Six or seven fingers on every dismal claw
It's high contact, it's high impact
Order a bombing of the sand yachts and the beach shacks
Evacuate the hipsters? Low priority
Sacrifice them if it saves the majority
Shoot it down before it reaches town
Cut up like marram grass, exercise authority!"

"I don't know if what I've done is good or bad
Shooting didn't kill it, it just got bad
The shacks have all been floored
And I'm sorry to report
That nothing of the lo-fi scene remain here in St Annes
From the dunes to the tide, nothing's left alive
If it comes inland, nobody will survive
I'm not deceiving you!"

"No, I'm believing you!
Hello? Guy? I'm no longer -"
