Deep in the Ocean
Lemon Demon Lyrics

Deep, deep, deep, deep in the ocean,
Being located far down in the depths of the ocean

Is a waterproof wristwatch that was dropped
A time-keeping device that is able to endure being used underwater, which fell into the ocean

From a boat on a cruise
It fell off a boat that was on a trip

By a man full of booze.
The person who lost the watch was highly intoxicated.

But even without a wrist it never stopped.
The wristwatch continued to function despite the absence of a wrist to wear it.

Through an accidental accident at the factory,
The watch's perpetual movement was unintentionally created during its production.

It was made so that it never need be wound.
It is structured to operate without being manually wound.

For the watch ran on love,
The watch's power source is love, not batteries or wound springs.

Which it had plenty of.
In the ocean, love is present in abundance.

For deep in the ocean there's plenty of love to be found.
Love is abundant in the ocean's depths.

Below the boats and sky,
Deep underwater, separated from the surface and air above

There's no such thing as time.
Timekeeping becomes irrelevant in the ocean's abyss.

There is no need for trying to
There is no point in trying to

Put it together.
Assemble or understand it

Put it together.
Assemble or understand it

I believe we'll someday lose our feet,
Humans will potentially lose the need for walking and grow gills to survive underwater.

Pick up some gills, and travel
Develop the ability to extract oxygen from water and explore the deep sea.

Deep, deep, deep, deep in the ocean,
Far beneath the ocean's surface

And enjoy a life that never should get old.
Living among marine creatures in the depths of the ocean scarcely ever ages.

But it can and it will,
However, the experience can eventually become dull.

For we'll be human still,
Humans would still be humans, merely living underwater.

And wherever ocean real estate is sold…
Wherever people are able to inhabit or explore in the ocean.

We'll be buying and selling
People will trade land or areas in the ocean

And always propelling it forwards.
Humans would always move forward to new areas to explore.

And the leader of fish will take a stand.
A dominant fish will emerge.

And we shall see it swim,
Humans will observe it move through the water.

With a wristwatch on its fin.
Even the fish will be in possession of a waterproof wristwatch.

And the race of fish will be taking over our land.
Fish will eventually dominate the habitat of humans

The fish will take our seats,
Fish will take the dominant position.

The schools, the farms, the streets,
Fish will control many areas typically dominated by humans.

And we'll be stuck down deep and
Humans will remain confined underwater, unable to transition back to life on land.

Maybe we'll never
Perhaps humans will never

Put it together.
Understand or piece together the situation to regain their previous way of life.

Deep in the ocean.
At the lowest depths of the ocean.

Deep in the ocean
Far below the surface and beyond reach.

And motionless.
Devoid of movement

Deep in the ocean.
At the depths of the ocean.

Deep in the ocean
Deeply submerged in the ocean.

There'll be no sun anymore.
Light will not penetrate effectively to the depths of the ocean.

Below the boats and sky,
Underwater, beneath the surface and sky.

There's no such thing as time.
Time is irrelevant far below the surface and away from human life.

There is no need for trying to
No purpose in attempting to

Put it together.
Comprehend or fix things

We'll be forever.
Humans may exist perpetually underwater in the depths of the ocean.

So much for our fish friends!
Ironically, the fish that could become human-like and take over the ocean would cease being the friendly creatures we know today.

Loose ends
Things left unresolved or undone

Can't be tied.
Unable to be resolved or put together.

Old selves have have died.
The former way of life, including life on land as we know it, is no longer a possible existence in this scenario.

Goggle eyed
Wide-eyed, like a fish.

And chased by whales.
Continuously hunted or threatened by larger, predatory sea creatures.

Swimmin'. Zoomin'.
Rapidly moving throughout the water.

Mermaid tails,
Developing a tail like a mermaid, rather than legs.

Almost human.
Fish becoming progressively more similar to humans in both appearance and behavior

Skin turned to scales.
Human skin becoming scaly and the same as fish scales.

I conclude:
'I conclude' represents the artist's conclusion regarding the song's storyline.

We've become sea food.
Fish(evolving from humans) were once what humans consumed for food, now humans have gone full circle and it is instead humans who have become the meal for fish.

We've become sea food.
The statement is repeated to intensify the artist's conclusion.

We've become sea food.
The statement repeated one last time to reinforce artist's depiction of the scenario.
