I needed something less serious. This might not be done, but it's OK.


I'm a diver.

Shafts of sunlight through the clouds show my destination.
The golden light of the moon shows my path there.
The seagull and the dolphin are my escorts.
The wind is blowing my hair.

I'm a diver.

This is all so new to me.
A brand new world to explore and see.
Still gotta figure out all this gear.
Still gotta manage to clear my ear.

I'm dazzled and thrilled, I'm here at last,
I just can't believe that my tank empties so fast.
I'm a newbie and it's such a task.
My gear is on backwards and I just crushed your mask.

I'm a diver.

I'm the old salt with pepper in my hair.
You name the place, I've dove down there.
Two hoses on a regulator you say.
Sure that's just how we did it in my day.

I'm a diver.
I'm the photodog. Please pose for me.
I'll spend my whole tank waiting quietly.
I'll capture what I see and show it off on land.
You better pose dammit. This gear cost ten grand.

I'm a diver.
For a dive, any ocean, lake, stream, quarry or river will do.
If I see anything, I make dive two.
Take a boat or shlepp down cliff and across beach.
I'll dive any silly place I can reach.


I'm a diver.
It moulds me and shapes me. It is my life.
It has cost me dearly, just ask my wife.
It's left me cold and it's left me broke.
But it's worth it you see, for it sets me free.


I'm a diver.
I'm the local that knows where it's hot.
I'll take you diving, but not to my spot.
I know each fish by sight and by name.
Watch them come begging, I've made them all tame.


I dive on the coral and drift like fluff in the wind.
Slowly, so slowly my corel cuts mend.
Water so warm, it's just like a bath.
Water so clear it just looks like it's not here.

I dive the ice when all others sit home.
Warm water is nice, but I'm here in Nome
My regulator is near as froze as my butt.
It's fun but then maybe I'm just a frozen nut.


I dive the kelp, it's the place to be.
Adrift in a forest under the sea
I cut the urchins from out of my skin
There is so much to see I don't know where to begin.


So lush and primeval
It takes me to human past
So wild and natural
It makes my life whole


I've been froze to the core. I've been baked by the sun.
I've gone on boats that weren't any fun.
I've gone diving some places I've managed to find.
OK, I admit it. I was out of my mind.


I'm an instructor, a diving pro
I'll teach you the tricks and diving we'll go.
Then I will tell you why you must have your own gear.
And then I will tell you why you should buy here.

We'll get you in the water
Then I'll help you get down
There is just on rule I insist on
Don't you dare drown.

Enjoy, seahunt
