Swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming
Just stay in your lanes
Swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming
Just stay in your lanes
No bombing and no heavy petting,
So just stay in your lanes.
Verruca socks and not forgetting to
Just stay in your lanes.
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles
Latchmere's got a wave machine.
Came out of the changing roomAnd absolutely nothing had changed
So I stayed in your lane.
Came out of the changing room
And absolutely fuck all had changed
So I'll stay in your lanes
Speedo, speed boy
Speedo, speed boy
Speedo, speed boy
Speedo, speed boy
So stay in your lanes.
Bido bipop, bido bipop
Bido bipop, bido bipop
