there are two Peters
who come swimming at the pool
both of them are nice
but you wouldn't call them cool
the older Peter
teaches at the college
his white hair means
you can trust his knowledge
he always wants to know how I'm doing
asks me "how's school been going?"
I try to be honest
but sometimes I'm not!
it's not that I don't remember
or that I forgot
I try to be honest
but sometimes I cannot
there are two Peters
underwater Peter
does underwater backstroke
I never get any of his bad jokes
he's got nothing better to do
than loiter at the pool
and try to sell his barbecue
I don't think he'll ever come swimming again
the officers came and arrested him
were we his only friends?
I don't think he'll ever
come swimming again
