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 breast stroke 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 I 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
