…Her moms be crazy though. Maybe what you did was too much. She shouldn’t have been tested. She shouldn’t have gone swimmin’! I said this! You never listen, Dawn. You always think you the smartest one cause you do what you do, but that don’t make you smart. You ain’t smarter than me. That’s why you couldn’t get me to swim out there like that. Couldn’t pay me. Cause I ain’t stupid. Talkin’ ’bout the acid taste when we all forget about how tired we get from the swim alone…
