Swimming Song lyrics

This summer I went swimming

This summer I might have drowned

But I held my breath and I kicked my feet

And I moved my arms around

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 backstroke

And you know that that's not all

I did the breaststroke and 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, yeah

This summer I did swan dives

And jackknifes for you all

And once when you weren't looking

I did a cannonball

Did a cannonball

This summer I went swimming

This summer I might have drowned

But I held my breath and I kicked my feet

And I moved my arms around

Moved my arms around
