lyrics

Never Asked To Go Swimming

Six feet below the surface
You meet up with me
Sure nice to see you down here
Keeping me company

Like a tree trunk floats in the ocean
A wooden octopus
I stretch my arms in all directions
Looking for a drink

And I am drowning
I never asked to go swimming
I am drowning
Never asked to go there

My home is a long lost empire
deep beneath the waves
Cold salty water slowly rising
Reaching the top of my head

‘Cause I’m drowning
I never asked to go swimming
I’m drowning
And I never asked to go there
