Do you think it matters where you're born?
No, not really, it only matters
That you can be proud of where you came from.
I don't think I know who I am anymore
What about the world
What do you mean
Well if the world was a better place,
Some of these bad things wouldn't happen.
Yeah but there's good things all around,
You just have to look longer and harder
To see them sometimes.
Praise god
For the water
Our son, and our daughter
The sun is here, it will stay a while
Long enough to bring out a smile
The swimming pool is on order
We'll fill it with water
Then swim
To the other side

Somewhere there's a heart and it's angry
Somewhere there's a place that I belong
Somewhere it's light, somewhere it's black
Somewhere there's a place in which I grow strong
Is it you way to save my day or is it that you're just on my mind
Somewhere there's a girl and she is empty somehow
She can't find me anymore
Is it the way, I spent my days or is it that you're on my mind
And I stand here on the door with a broken birthday present
And I ain't got no mother fucking glue.
Is it the way I spent my day or is it that you're on my mind
And I just can't wait to see you here next to me
In my pool oh that's cool oh that's cool yeah so cool

Why you talking shit about five or six shots?
Imma show you how to fuck up a whole block.
First you get an AK with the whole hundred rounds in
Pour up, drink. Headshot, drank. Sit down, drank. Stand
up, drank.
Pass out, drank. Wake up, drank. Faded, drank. Faded,
drank.
A lil’ nigger shining like the diamonds in my watch,
Push the miles mic and turn it up a notch, gotta be.
Yellow bitch that sucks dick and take pride in,
Pussy deep and wet that I just dive in.
Pussy nigger hate fuck around and get popped,
Okay, my young niggers from the block.
Money come in all hundreds, no twenty, ten’s or five’s
And she ride this dick , but her license’s suspended.
A nigger living reckless trying to get these stacks,
Left your bitch naked laying on her back,
‘cause I don’t want the pussy, I just want the head.
I pulled up in that system, made ‘em turn their head.
Bitch, I’m turned up every day, big bangs are my
entrée,
Big house where my trump stay, let your car in my
driveway.
And you ain’t fucking with my clique, you ain’t fucking
with my hood,
You don’t get it like this pussy.
Pour up, drink. Headshot, drank. Sit down, drank. Stand
up, drank.
Pass out, drank. Wake up, drank. Faded, drank. Faded,
drank.
Purple by the gallon smoking A-one crop
In the hood with my niggers on the block.
Louie bag with a crack, some cash and a nine in it,
As I heard you just gotta grind to get it.
Thank four dub g, my family and thank God,
But they aiming for the chain and the watch.
Diamonds clear like ice bitch and not a flaw in it,
Dragging dirty sprite with no parole.
The street done, got me on payroll,
my niggers down for life, faybo.
You put down the mic, you gay type homo,
I’m still the same nigger from day one, hoe.
Ain’t nothing gonna change a real nigger,
And, oh, you fake, this ain’t your field, nigger.
I’m good, looking for another switcher,
She trying to pop a pill, huh, I pass the liquor and
Pour up, drink. Headshot, drank. Sit down, drank. Stand
up, drank.
Pass out, drank. Wake up, drank. Faded, drank. Faded,

(K. Grimwood/E. Idlet)
Blue skies with no clouds,
Hot afternoons can get you down and make you sweaty.
Mid-summer sun bake,
I know exactly what we should do and I think you're ready.
Gonna stay cool, cool, cool at the swimming pool.
Gonna stay cool, cool, cool at the swimming pool.
Swimsuits or cutoffs
Slide into your jams, it makes no difference.
But don't forget the sun block.
Flippers or face mask,
Flip down those shades and grab your pool pass.
But don't forget the sun block.
Gonna stay cool, cool, cool at the swimming pool.
Gonna stay cool, cool, cool at the swimming pool.
Just like the river without the rocks,
Just like the ocean without the sharks,
Just like the lake, but it's not so deep,
If you want to stay cool, some along with me.
Feet first or swan dive,
Back flip or jackknife, cannonball, but no belly-busters.
Blow up that rubber raft, float all afternoon, just relax and laugh.
It's an attitude adjuster.
Gonna stay cool, cool, cool at the swimming pool.

Travelled three hundred miles (that's a day on the train),
With a change half way that's a helluva pain,
But it's oh-so-very worth it just to see you again,
You know you've really taken over my brain.
Won't tell nobody, gonna switch off my phone,
They won't know where I am or why I left on my own,
And if they find out, hope they don't take it so hard,
But you've got a swimming pool in your back yard.
[chorus]
Hey hey hey hey hey! What a beautiful day!
We'll be swimming around in our own little personal bay,
Hey hey hey hey hey! You know I'm a fool,
For a boozy little floozy with a swimming pool!
There'll be nobody else, baby, just me and you,
In your house outta town with the incredibile view,
And in that bikini that I bought you, you'll look oh-so-cute,
Who cares if you don't have a chute?!
We'll be sippin' Mai-tais or whatever your taste,
Just sittin' with the water up over our waists,
As we remember how december was so awfully hard,
In the swimming pool in your back yard.
[chorus]
So when the ice is all done and we've squeezed all the limes,
And our back-yard-Bahamas has fallen on hard times,
We'll keep showing the worl what good livin's about,
There ain't no way we're gettin' out,
So like after a week, which is way-too-soon,
They can drag me from the water with skin like a prune,
A beautiful sun-tan hopelessly marred,
By the swimming pool in your back yard.
[chorus]
...Hey hey hey hey hey! We'll be havin' such fun,

I was never good at school
You couldn't keep me awake
I loved it by the swimming pool
Just floating off into space
I think of what I could have been
Sweating in a nylon shirt
The captain of a loser's team
Saying nothing till I'm fit to burst
And if I could only do it
I would say I knew you were a friend of mine
But I've been on this planet
Long enough to know it's just a waste of time
And the days get longer
They get longer day by day by day by day by day
Sit up, Sit straight, and concentrate
Grow up to be someone you hate
C'mon, get up, get out of bed
Don't use excuses, use your head
I was never good at school
You couldn't keep me awake
I loved it by the swimming pool
Just floating off into space
And if I could have an hour
I would take a shower and forget it all
And if things were any better
I would only worry I'd been here before
And the days get longer
They get longer day by day by day by day by day
Sit up, Sit straight, and concentrate
Grow up to be someone you hate
C'mon, get up, get out of bed
Don't use excuses, use your head
C'mon, get up, get out of bed
Don't use excuses, use your head

There's comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool
I'm holding my breath for you
There's no doubt in my mind that if you could then you would try
To crack my ribcage open and pull my heart right through
There's comfort in the bottom of a swimming pool
I'm holding my breath for you
There's no doubt in my mind that if you could then you would try
To crack my ribcage open and pull my heart right through
But I'm a creature of a culture that I create
I'm the last one on the dance floor
As the chandelier gives way
And I am permanently
Preoccupied with your past
I've been around long enough now
To know that the good things never last
They never last.
There's comfort in the silence of a living room
The TV is on for you
Hide in your basement while your house burns down
Your teeth are loose inside of your gums
They will eventually fall out
Follow an orange extension cord under a carpet, to a closet door
Feeding the black light that will someday make me very, very, very, very, very rich.
But I'm a creature of a culture that I create
And I'm the last one on the dance floor
As the chandelier gives way
And I am permanently
Preoccupied with your past
I've been around long enough now
To know that the good things never last
They never last.
How low is your self esteem
And how low could it possibly be?
I know, I know you're in love with me
And I've been ignoring you
I will stop cutting my pants into shorts
I will address the issues I cannot ignore
And I will do the things I think you might like

Heavy is the mind that can't be told
When its time to let it go
Heavy is the heart filled so full with sorrow
But worry cant help a single thing and
When we're out of our heads
At least were out in the open
The warning signs of a troubled mind
It's all the things we can't see and can't hide
But when you kiss me in ways I've forgotten,
Love is a swimming pool with no bottom
We've got to hold on the water is rising
And all we ever wanted is to be loved
Whether sun or stars above
All our trouble all our toil
Is towards no greater earthly goal
So never mind what logic says I say
logic a guy who outta empty his pockets
All we want is an open mind you know the
Kind you can't earn and can't buy
And when you kiss me in ways I've forgotten,
Love is a swimming pool with no bottom
We've got to hold on the water is rising
And everyone spends a little time
Fighting the drift back out to the deep end
When I asked you to throw me a line
Thats when you pulled me out by the heart strings
Hey yeeaaaa
We thought the weight of the world would have us sinking like a stone
If we should ever lose our hold
But we rise to the surface the moment
That we know theres nothing to fear down below
When you kiss me in ways I've forgotten,
Love is a swimming pool with no bottom
We've got to hold on the water is rising
When you kiss me in ways I've forgotten,
Love is a swimming pool with no bottom
We've got to hold on the water is rising

Rachel is a gilded volume
Of holy scripture
That I read over and over again
Until I get the picture
And keep upon my night stand
Next to my pen and tumbler
But you, you are my swimming pool
My wet and holy slumber
Marc is like a pyre
I think of in the morning
When it’s time to go to work
And fear of work is dawning
He’s like a pure example
A sacred shrine burning
But you, you are my swimming pool
You take in all the yearning
You calm my heady thinkin’
A water bed to sink in
And rise out in the mornin’
For the sun to drink in
When I was a little girl
I had a love for swimming
And you, you are my swimming pool
A well of love that’s brimming.
Jessie is a river flowin’
We never know where she’s goin’
But we’re happy to join her
Try to know what she’s knowin’
She weaves around those rocks and bends
Keeps the world stirring
But you, you are my swimming pool.
An island’s reassuring
You calm my heady thinkin’
A water bed to sink in
And rise out in the mornin’
For the sun to drink in
A many-layered triptych
The world that I can live in
But you, you are my swimming pool
A world that I can swim in
You, you are my swimming pool

late at night, the air was cool
we snuck into the swimming pool
you dove headfirst, i waded in
the scent of chlorine upon our skin
the stars were bright, the water clear
i felt your heat as you swam near
i held my breath, you held my hand
moving away, further from land
the moon was full, everything blue
the water stilled, reflecting you
floating right here with you next to me
gazing at stars, we drift silently
late at night, the air was cool
we snuck into the swimming pool
i went under and you followed
let's not think about tomorrow
everything is perfect now (x8)
everything is perfect now - i held my breath
everything is perfect now - you held my hand
everything is perfect now - moving away
everything is perfect now - further from land
everything is perfect now - the stars were bright
everything is perfect now - the water clear
everything is perfect now - i felt your heat
everything is perfect now - as you swam near
