[00:00:00] The Pearl Fishermen (Live BBC Saturday Sequence 14/9/1989) - All About Eve

[00:00:10] The milkmoons dwell in their quiet shells

[00:00:18] Where they fell from the heaven

[00:00:27] Two pearl fishermen hold their breath again

[00:00:35] Fight to the death again for the same prize

[00:00:43] Oh my brother one of us loses

[00:00:50] One must drown and the other she chooses

[00:01:00] The jade of the blue offers diamonds to you

[00:01:07] But you find it's not true when the sun sets

[00:01:14] You dive far below

[00:01:19] Where the sun doesn't go

[00:01:23] Where your brother won't know

[00:01:26] And you hear her saying

[00:01:32] Oh my lover now that you've found me

[00:01:39] Now your brother is bound to be drowned

[00:01:47] I don't know why you'd feud over me

[00:01:56] All those pearls lay asleep on the sea bed

[00:02:20] The pearl in his hand

[00:02:23] She's just a grain of sand

[00:02:27] She's dressed up as snow

[00:02:31] In the moonlight

[00:02:35] She's porcelain

[00:02:39] On his sallow skin

[00:02:43] He's been taken in

[00:02:47] By illusion

[00:02:53] Oh my brother we're both of us losers

[00:03:00] I don't know why she ever did choose us

[00:03:08] To call one her lover and bury the other

[00:03:16] So I'll hold my breath 'til the story is over
