Wading in the water and the tide began to creep

Before I knew it, I had blew it, and started to get deep

Head and shoulders under, watch my eyes burn till I weep

Didn't know I could swim, but I learned in quantum leaps

It's like you got it/ on the tip top of your nose

The shit you're in/ ain't turnin' out/ smellin' like a rose

This shit ain't funny/ but you/ take it like a joke

You've earned your turn, you doo doo doo doo, The Deep Shit Backstroke!

Swim muthafukka swim, or sink in to the sea

I tried to tread water, but it takes/ to much energy

Doggy paddlin' in this doodee got me flickin' off the fleas

You're in deep shit, doo doo the backstroke, like you're floatin' in the breeze

It's like you got it/ on the tip top of your nose

The shit you're in/ ain't turnin' out/ smellin' like a rose

This shit ain't funny/ but you/ take it like a joke

You've earned your turn, you doo doo doo doo, The Deep Shit Backstroke!

The shit you're in, ain't over, but there's no permanence of state

That sinking feelings, got you reeling, thinkin' it's to late

Up the nerve and your learning curve and manifest your fate

It's stinkin' but you're not sinkin', in this shit that don't smell so great

It's like you got it/ on the tip top of your nose

The shit you're in/ ain't turnin' out/ smellin' like a rose

This shit ain't funny/ but you/ take it like a joke

You've earned your turn, you doo doo doo doo, The Deep Shit Backstroke!
