Channel Swimmer

Artist：10cc

Songs Title：channel swimmer

Well it's cold down here in the water

It's cold down here in the sea

Who'd be a channel swimmer

Only a fool like me

I've greased my body

And I'm heading over the ocean

These two arms are the only locomotion

I need

See me swim and see me float

I don't need no motorboat

Or a yacht to get me there

I'll do the breaststroke

And the backstroke

I'll do anything

I'll be swimming when you're all asleep

I'll be swimming when you're all awake

I'll do the sidestroke

The other sidestroke

I'll do the butterfly

But I ain't gonna crawl

On back to you no way

I see your face in every breaker

I see your smile across the reef

I came across the sea to take you

Don't make me out to be a thief

You'll be dreaming when you're all asleep

But I'll be drowning when you're all awake

I did the breaststroke

I did my best stroke

I did everything

But I ain't good enough

'Cause it's cold down here in the water

It's cold down here in the sea

Who'd be a channel swimmer

Only a fool like me

Who'd be a channel swimmer

Only a fool like me

Would forget he can't swim
