The Swimming Song
Quelle: Spotify
this summer I went swimming
this summer I might have drowned
but I held my breath, I kicked my feet
moved my arms around
I moved my arms around
this summer I swam in the ocean
and I swam in a swimming pool
salt my wounds, chlorine my eyes
I’m a self-destructive fool
self-destructive fool
this summer I did the back-stroke
and you know that that’s not all
I did the breast stroke, the butterfly
and the old australian crawl
the old australian crawl
this summer I swam in a public place
and a reservoir to boot
at the latter I was informal
at the former I wore my suit
I wore my swimming suit
oh, this summer I did swan dives
and jack-knives for you all
and once when you weren’t looking
I did a cannon-ball
I did a cannon-ball
this summer I went swimming
this summer I might have drowned
but I held my breath, I kicked my feet
and moved my arms around
I moved my arms around
