lyrics

It seems a shame
That summer means
Spending time at the beach
Cause try as I might
There's just one thing
Nobody can seem to teach
Me how to swim
Or even float
So I stay on land or in a boat
And summer time just
Isn't it for me

Let's go swimming
(No please no)
Let's go diving
(No please no)
Let's go lay in Peter's pool
On inflatable chairs and flamingos!
(No please no please no)

It seems a shame
That summer means
Spending time at the beach
Cause try as I might
There's just one thing
Nobody can seem to teach
Me how to swim
Or even float
So I stay on land or in a boat
And summer time just
Isn't it for me

Let's go fishing in a yacht!
(Not without my life jacket!)
Let's go to the beach!
(Not without my SPF 50)
Let's go wade in the shallows
As crabs start grabbing at our toes
(That seems to me like a much better plan)

It seems a shame
That summer means
Spending time at the beach
Cause try as I might
There's just one thing
Nobody can seem to teach
Me how to swim
Or even float
So I stay on land or in a boat
And summer time just
Isn't it for me
