Barenaked Ladies Crawl song lyrics

It's harder than it looks to move through water

First you've got to paddle like a pup

You see yourself, you're sure you're lamb to slaughter

So you take what was pure and muck it up

But I'll throw my hands up and drag myself through

And I'll kick my feet cause I've learned to crawl

It's really impressive, when I was just drowning

I'll crawl, might as well be a butterfly

I could hold my breath and just stay under

But now there's rings of fire on the lake

Lookin' back from here I have to wonder

Just how much did I think that I could take

So I'll throw my hands up and drag myself through

And I'll kick my feet cause I've learned to crawl

It's really impressive, when I was just drowning

I'll crawl, might as well be a butterfly

I'll crawl, it's really impressive, when I was just drowning

I'll crawl, might as well be a butterfly

Hand over hand over hand

Hand over hand 'til I believe that I can stand

I'll crawl

I'll crawl, it's really impressive, when I was just drowning

I'll crawl, might as well be a butterfly

I'll crawl, it's really impressive, when I was just drowning

I'll crawl, might as well be a butterfly

I'll crawl
