"Deepsea Diver Song" (or "Deep Sea Diver Song") is a song by Residents, Uninc. from their long unreleased 1971 demo tape B.S.. After circulating in bootleg form among fans for many years, the song saw its first official release in 2016 on the compilation CD The Residents Present The Delta Nudes.
B.S. (including "Deep Sea Diver Song") was remastered and released as a limited edition vinyl LP for Record Store Day in April 2019, and was finally made widely available on CD as part of the two-disc pREServed compilation A Nickle If Your Dick's This Big later that year.
Lyrics
My daddy was a diver deep In the briny blue And I sing, as I weep These words that he left, for you
Always make friends, never piss in the wind Oooh, ooh Always make friends, never piss in the wind And you won't get the bends
My mother was a diver, too But her name, [?], was Jill After floatin' upside down Procreatin' with an electric eel
Always make friends, never piss in the wind Ohhh, ohh Always make friends, never piss in the wind And you won’t get the bends
Never piss, never piss, never piss in the wind Never piss, never piss, never piss in the wind Never piss, never piss, never piss in the wind Never piss, never piss, never piss in the wind
Never piss, never piss, never piss in the wind Never, never, never piss in the wind Never, never, never piss in the wind Never piss in the wind
