The Two Man Gentlemen Band - Newtown Creek lyrics

Artist: The Two Man Gentlemen Band

album: Heavy Petting


In the morning
Twice a week
I go swimming in new town Creek
My nose runs
I begin to cough
My hair and skin
Flake off
I start in Brooklyn
Swim to Queens
Turn around and swim back again
My bones ache
I can hardly speak
When im swimming in new town Creek
It was in the autumn
Three years now
My love and i spoke wedding vows
And when the evening air was warm
We'd stroll that dirty shore
We'd count the tires and paper cups
And all the fish floating belly up
She declared
If you ever treat me mean
I'll throw my body in the new town stream
So i hurled myself
Into the deep
And i hold my breath
Till i fall asleep
The only girl
I ever wanted to keep
Is lying at the bottom
Of new town creek
In the morning
Twice a week
I go swimming in new town creek
My nose runs
I begin to cough
My hair and skin
Flake off
I start in Brooklyn
Swim to Queens
Turn around and swim back again
My bones ache
I can hardly speak
When im swimming in new town Creek
