lyrics

Careless Kim went for a swim
Where none could hear her shout
She got in to cool her skin
And never did get out
Day break
They drag the lake
And find no body, though
But she's there, I know
Somewhere below
The emerald undertow
And though I saw her going under
I could only watch in wonder

'Cause I don't swim so well
It's a miracle I'm mobile
At the choir girl hotel
There are teardrops in the water
Another wish in the well
Why would I tell?
I'm just a peeping tom, I'm gonna go to Hell

It's late, I'm laughing
In my room
Though I don't get the joke
I grind my grin
Throat closes in
As chuckle turns to choke
Though I saw her going under
I could only watch in wonder

'Cause I don't swim so well
It's a miracle I'm mobile
At the choir girl hotel
There are teardrops in the water
Another wish in the well
Why would I tell?
I'm just a peeping tom, I'm gonna go to Hell

So here I am
Your sleepless little lamb
The water makes me numb
But if six feet deep is
The only way to sleep
Then baby, here I come
And though I saw her going under
I could only watch in wonder

'Cause I don't swim so well
It's a miracle I'm mobile
At the choir girl hotel
There are teardrops in the water
Another wish in the well
For someone who don't swim so well
Why would I tell?
I'm just a peeping tom, I'm gonna go to Hell

3 Woodstock, New York

3 is a band apart. Dark yet uplifting, spiritual without any connection to religion, theirs is a sound that transcends the genre conformity of modern pop culture. Rapid-fire acoustic guitar infused with dynamic percussion, animated drumming, thunderous bass and melodic vocal acrobatics culminate in a listening experience that is at once accessible and unique. 3 offers musicality without pretension ... more
