Lyrics

[Intro] Oh there'll be time, to get by, to get dry after the swimming pool Oh there'll be time, to just cry, I wonder why it didn't work out Oh there'll be time to fish fry, for letters by yours truly Yours truly [Verse 1] Someone in my dictionary's up to no good I never find the very special words I should So I have another party with a water glass And I sit on all your actions, it's a birthing game And I'll bet he needs a shower 'cause he's just like me And the soldiers in the painting know your secret face Well your parrot told me just how I can make you smile Gonna let you do your thinking if you need a while But what I gave you made him get mad A little bit funny how a thing like that Could travel from one mouth in through another and The next thing you know you gotta hear it from your brother and The words they sting like a stump of old wasps Do you remember when I said go throw the rock in there? And we ran through the woods to our good house And you forgot about the things that he could say like I don't think that I like you anymore Well I found new feelings at the feeling store And I can't find you at our kissing place And I'm scared of those new pair of eyes you have [Chorus] So I duck out and go down to find the swimming pool Hop a fence, leave the street and wet your feet to find the swimming pool 'Cause when I'm snuffed out I doubt I'll find a swimming pool Hop a fence, leave the street and wet your feet to find the swimming pool [Verse 2] But I don't wish that I was dead Now a very old friend of mine once said That either way you look at it You have your fits, I have my fits but feeling is good Confusion's not a kidney stone in my brain But if we're miscommunicating, do we feel the same? Then either way you look at it You have your fits, I have my fits but feeling is good [Chorus] So I duck out and go down to find the swimming pool Hop a fence, leave the street and wet your feet to find the swimming pool 'Cause when I'm snuffed out I doubt I'll find a swimming pool Hop a fence, leave the street and wet your feet to find the swimming pool [Outro] And you can laugh a little And you can laugh a little bit And you can laugh a little And you can laugh a little bit And you can laugh a little And you can laugh a little bit And you can laugh a little And you can laugh a little bit
