Showers pounding out a new beat
I trade my old shoes for new feet
I grab a new seat
I don´t like the one I got
The fabric´s wearing through
And it´s wearing me out
You´re wearing me down

Watching old baseball games
And low budget telethons
Ain´t like watching you yourself
When you yourself is on
Got time to wander to waste and to whine
But when it comes to you
It seems like I just can´t find the time

So watch your head and then watch the ground
It´s a silly time to learn to swim
When you start to drown
It´s a silly time to learn to swim
On the way down

If I gave you my number
Would it still be the same
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you´ll never go away
Oh, promise me you´ll always stay

Closed down the last local zoo
I´m gonna win the endless war
Over who kills the last koala bear
And who in death will love him more and I
He grabs me by the hand
Drags me to the shore and says
Maybe you don´t love me
But you´ll grow to love me even more
And I well I´m not surprised

If I gave you my number
Would it still be the same
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you´ll never go away
Oh, promise me you´ll always stay

Showers pounding out a new beat
I trade my old shoes for new feet
I grab a new seat
I don´t like the one I got
The fabric´s wearing through
And it´s wearing me out
You´re wearing me down
You´re wearing me down

So watch your head and then watch the ground
It´s a silly time to learn to swim
When you start to drown
It´s a silly time to learn to swim
When you start to drown

If I gave you my number
Would it still be the same
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you´ll never go away

Oh, if I gave you my number
Would it still be the same
If I, if I saved you from drowning
Promise me you´ll never go away
Oh, promise me you´ll always stay
Promise me you´ll always say
