Jimmy Buffett - Beautiful Swimmers lyrics

[Jimmy Buffett - Beautiful Swimmers lyrics]

Marilyn Monroe did a night shoot in a pool
Posing naked for a Playboy spread
She was old but she still was cool
When they wrapped right after midnight
And the crew went to the bar
Norma Jean just did the backstroke
Like she was reachin' for a fallen star

Beautiful swimmers, they know how to move
Slidin' 'cross the water like a steel guitar
Beautiful swimmers stay in the groove
Riding constant currents near and far

Standing in a tidal pool
Just east of Baltimore
Watching little blue crabs navigate
The eastern shore every bayou, stream
And river in time runs to the sea
Every flounder, tadpole
And softshell feels the choreography



They're all beautiful swimmers who
Know how to move
Sneakin' past the draggers and
The oyster bars
Beautiful swimmers just feel the groove
Painting liquid brushstrokes like Renoir

I miss my dorsal fin
I'm a big fish out of water
Dwellin' on the coastal plain

Now If I was as rich as the Aga Kahn
I tell you what I would do
Buy every man, woman
And child on this planet
A mask and a snorkel too
Then I'd lead that big migration
Destination Waimea Bay
Then we'd splash our way around the world
Life is just a water ballet

Come all you beautiful swimmers who
Know how to move
Let's crowd across the water
Like a steel guitar
Beautiful swimmers stay in the groove
Fetching constant currents near and far
