Deep Sea Creature - Show Me Your Tattoo

Show me your tattoo
Who have you let, paint on you
An illustrated man, whose inks reveal a Plan
If you get too close you might fall in
Tell me the story of your skin
Tell me about the skin you're in
What have you done with it
What colours you painted it
What's gotten under your skin
Why is your tattoo black
What is that animal on your back
Tell me who is riding who got inky fingers into you
Drives you down that long and winding track
Why is your tattoo rose
Do you think that's the way it grows
Those hooks drawn on your skin
Are they holding and drawing you in
Is it stuck in there so that everyone knows
Tell me about your birds
Is it true what I've heard
Do they really mate for life
Souls set free to fly
Remembering the living and the dead
Tell us about the skin you're in
Is your skin there, thick or thin
Did you burn or ink it in
What of the scars they're coverin'
What have you done with the skin you're in
Tell us about your star
Does it shine from near or far
What directions it's pointing in
If it's used for navigating
Will it Guide you home in the dark of night
Show me your tattoo
