The Swimmer

In the wake of his chariot

You swam toward the latitudes

Leaving for happier times

Florida far behind

Trying your best you were

Ignoring the rescuers

You’d gone so very long

You were so very strong

The scene was so tragic

But that was the magic

Will you never drown?

Will you learn to use

Some forgotten part?

Some forgotten part?

Are you going down

Where the ballyhoos

And the tritons are? (2x)

You were so incredible

Finding all the edible

Prize of the sea

Prize of the sea

In the wake of his chariot

You swam toward the latitudes

Leaving for happier times

Florida far behind

In division pelagic

You were choragic

Will you never drown?

Will you learn to use

Some forgotten part?

Some forgotten part?

Are you going down

Where the ballyhoos

And the tritons are? (3x)
