I guess my man's fallen out with my head
Buried beneath is a submarine cable
You're like the coasts of an ocean
Your fingers could encircle clear around the ankle
My man muscles from hand to foot
Connecting the opposite shores that surround it
Completely covered in uninteruppted skin
My man signals command the leg
When something happens to drag on the floor of the ocean
My man signals command the leg
May I direct your attention to the following simile
To follow orders coming down from headquarters
My man won't walk again
My man how can he stand?
Why then am I in bed? I guess my man's fallen out with my head
My man how can he stand?
Which halts the transmission across it
There is no way to repair the break
My man muscles from hand to foot
For instance an anchor or mooring
To follow orders coming down from headquarters
Why can't the message be sent?
The cable can be disrupted and even be severed
In conflict with express instructions given by the brain
Completely covered in uninteruppted skin
