In the middle of the summer on the west coast of Sweden
We had sandwiches in our bags waiting to be eaten
Over fallen trees sun was drifting through the leaves
And you led me to the biggest lake that I'd ever seen
And all of the punks in Camden could never shout about it
And all of the hipsters in Shoreditch could never style it
And all of the bankers in Moorgate could never buy it
For you, this is simple, and it's true
So let's go swimming this afternoon
The water here is so clear I can see to the bottom
And it's so strange in winter all this'll be frozen solid
I tell you it feels new to go swimming somewhere nothing can eat you
And all of the punks in Camden could never shout about it
And all of the hipsters in Shoreditch could never style it
And all of the bankers in Moorgate could never buy it
For you, this is simple, and it's true
So let's go swimming this afternoon
And down by the ocean I learned to give in
As we fall through the waves I know this is it
At the start of May on the central coast of Queensland
In a little cove where pandanus lines the sand
The water's so salty, if we stay in too long we'll get thirsty
But there's beer in the esky.
And all of the punks in Camden could never shout about it
And all of the hipsters in Shoreditch could never style it
And all of the bankers in Moorgate could never buy it
For you, this is simple, and it's true
So let's go swimming this afternoon
