What was the alternative one like? And is he saying "small" or "smart?" B/c that makes a huge difference. And what is he singing at the end? It sounds like "waves are pulling waves" lol.
So, the first verse sounds like he is either a scarescrow, or a toy soldier (anyone remember that story?). And his head literally falls off into the water (or in the toy soldier's case, a pool of wax since he melts in the story). And he is the telling the story of what he sees while he is floating in the water.
And the whole "The men all played along to marching drums and boy did they have fun behind the sea. They sang, 'so our matching legs are marching clocks and we’re all too small to talk to God.'" totally reminds me of toy soldiers.
Not sure what the whole watermelon part is about though...
@mywordsareweapons I'm 8 years late, so I'm sure you've figured it out by now, but it alternates between "small" and "smart" (tbh just thought it would be kinda funny to respond to such an old comment)
