At noon the wind comes through

Across the bay on a clear day

And I can watch the boats come in and set their anchors

And my folks are away at the store

So I don't have to listen to anyone say anything.

And I swim out as far as I can

And float on my back

Just waiting for nothing.

I hope they never come back to this house.

It's a lot more fun alone.

I can do anything I want

And so I'm swimming

More like floating

And I'll just stay out here

Until the night comes crashing down

And I swim out as far as I can

And float on my back

Just waiting for nothing.

They always come home

At the wrong time

Like when I'm all right

And don't need no one at all.
