lyrics

(ONE, TWO, ONE, TWO, THREE!)
YOU EVER BEEN TO THE KOSCIUSZCO POOL?
THAT’S THE PLACE I LIKE TO KEEP IT COOL
THAT’S WHERE I’LL BE
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)
ALL OF MY BUDDIES AND ME
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)
WE GONNA SPLISH AND SPLASH
GOIN’ SWIM, SWIM, SWIMMIN’ IN THE CITY

WELL,
I LIKE TO PADDLE AND I LIKE TO KICK
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE, LET ME SHOW YOU A TRICK
IT’S CALLED THE FLOAT
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)
I’M BOBBING ON MY BACK LIKE A BOAT
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)
WE’RE GONNA SPLISH AND SPLASH
GOIN’ SWIM, SWIM, SWIMMIN’ IN THE CITY

HERE WE GO!

ALRIGHT ALEX, LET’S TAKE IT TO THE MANHATTAN BRIDGE!

WHEN THE CONCRETE’S HOT
I KNOW A REAL COOL SPOT
WHERE THE NEIGHBORHOOD KIDS LIKE TO PLAY

‘CUZ THERE’S A SPRINKLER AT THE PLAYGROUND
WE CAN LET OUR HAIR DOWN
I BRING MY GROWN-UP THERE EVERY DAY

AND WHEN THE OCEAN FEELS OUT OF REACH
WE HEAD ON DOWN TO CONEY ISLAND BEACH
THAT’S WHAT WE DO
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)
ME AND MOMMA WE JUST HOP ON THE Q
(WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’, YEAH, WE’RE GOIN’ SWIMMIN’)

WE’RE GONNA SPLISH AND SPLASH
GOIN’ SWIM, SWIM, SWIMMIN’ IN THE CITY
WE’RE GONNA SPLISH AND SPLASH
GOIN’ SWIM, SWIM, SWIMMIN’ IN THE CITY
WE’RE GONNA JUMP AND DIVE
CUZ WE’RE STAYING ALIVE IN THE CITY
