Swimming Pools Lyrics

Thao & The Get Down Stay Down Swimming Pools

We are sore the length of our bodies
We restore water we cry
We are nothing if not your granddaughters
We have been nothing but dignified

[Chorus]
We, we brave beestings and all
And we don't dive, we cannonball
And we splash our eyes full of chemicals
Just so there's none left for little girls
Just so there's none left for little girls

Roll, roll, roll up your denim
We've got to pedal 10 hours south
They pour it down from their balconies
You've got to push all the doubt to the side of your mouth

[Chorus]
We, we brave beestings and all
And we don't dive, we cannonball
And we splash our eyes full of chemicals
Just so there's none left for little girls
Just so there's none left for little girls

We are sore the length of our bodies
We restore water we cry
We are nothing if not your granddaughters
We have been nothing but dignified

[Chorus]
