lyrics

I don't wanna put a downer on your swim
And I know you like to keep your body trim
But I don't think that I'm spoiling anything by reminding you of good behaviour

It's good that people aren't the same
And it's good that people like to train and I don't like to complain but...
You shouldn't do butterfly in the slow lane

If you think you're good enough to try
A hard stroke like the butterfly
You need to get your sorry Speedo ass inside the medium or the fast one

And I know that people aren't the same
and I know that people like to train
and I don't like to complain, but you shouldn't do butterfly in the slow lane
It's right that people aren't the same
and it's right that people like to train
and I don't like to complain, but you shouldn't do butterfly in the slow lane

Maybe you don't mean us any harm, but we don't need the splashing from your arms

We don't need a mini tidal wave
and have you heard about the new craze?
Best encapsulated by the phrase: breaststroke is the best one

It's true that people aren't the same
and it's true that people like to train
But I got this one thing on my brain...
You shouldn't do butterfly in the slow lane
