lyrics

Look at the waters that rise
Til they climb over your eyes
Sleep in the sun without fear
Snow’s coming later this year

Like a broken soda fountain drips so sweet
Nobody has to quit dancing in this heat
If you can dance you can swim, you will not drown
If you can swim no water can hold you down

Pick up your shoes
Dance and get high
Nothing to lose
Let the sea rise
Music won’t stop
Keep your smile bright
And when the sun drops
Turn up the lights

If you are scared you will sink
Open your mouth take a drink
If you will drown anyway
Might as well have a taste

Later you’re going to a party
Get up even if you’re gasping if you’re dead
Water’s a glowing like a dance floor now
Shake it until the water breaks over your head

Pick up your shoes
Dance and get high
Nothing to lose
Let the sea rise
Music won’t stop
Keep your smile bright
And when the sun drops
Turn up the lights

Breath, take a breath without air
See? There’s no reason to care
Your head is so light it can float
Over the waves like a boat

Higher waves
Swimming’s the plan
Hotter days
More time to tan
Hit the beach
Soak up the sun
Catastrophe
Was never so fun
