Lyrics

Underwater in a submarine
He smokes a cigarette and blows the steam
He navigates though the deep blue sea
All by his lonesome, no company
Mainwaring in his submarine
Rescued a lady from a sinking ship
Then let her go on an iceberg tip
Ferried a family from an island head
Brought them to cannibals on a beach instead
Mainwaring in his submarine
His eyes are hollow just like his cheeks
His faded uniform not washed in weeks
He had a daughter to call his own
Poseidon's water took her long ago
Mainwaring in his submarine
Out the portal late at night
A sailor might see a watery light
And if he sees it, he'll let it be
It's the lonely Captain in his submarine
Mainwaring, where's your queen?
Mainwaring, where's your queen?
Mainwaring, where's your queen?
