Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning

always looking for attention
always needs to be mentioned
who does she think she should be?
the shrill cry through darkening air
doesn't she know he's had such a busy day?

somebody tell her...sshhh

it was only a test
but she swam too far against the tide
she deserves all she gets
the sky became mad with stars
as an outstretched arm slowly disappears

oh hooray

please don't worry
there'll be no fuss
she was...nobody's nothing

when he awoke the sea was calm
and another day passes like a dream
