[Eb]
I got no reason to be paranoid.
What's on the hook?
That's what I avoid.
I was brought underwater without a sound.
[Ebm] In my pins and the [Eb] drinks,

[Ab] You gotta swim, baby, you [Ebm] gotta swim.
[Eb]
[Bb] I can swim like a tiger shark.
[Ab] No, I'm not a [Ebm] cutie, Liz.
[Bbm]
[Eb] I'm so damn tall.
I'm black and I'm white.
