He was a snorkling guy
South of Florida state.
Now he's diving all the time
water’s where he stays.
Yesterday he was boasting.
Submerged he better stay.
Snorkeling guy you made her think I was crazy
your memory is hazy
Why don’t you swim alone?
So Snorkeling guy your swimmings not magic.
Coming here will be tragic;
your choice would be wrong.
You became well known in the sea of green
And now there are just we two
wish you went back to sea.
So Snorkeling guy please return to the Atlantic.
Dive back and don’t panic
In the sea you belong.
Will the wave that washed your ship
Onto the shore
Quickly sail his ship back to the sea.
Snorkeling guy your plans about her are crazy
you’d smell like a daizy
Why don’t you swim back home?
