The Lyrics
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
There was a desperate swim coach and he had a suffering team
They had broken goggles and a lot of shattered dreams
The sad assistant coach always swam while still in school
They don't what to do 'bout their failing YMCA pool
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Well this melancholy coach and his suffering team and Y
Started pitching in, in a way to save the Y
Formed a member mob filled with many picket signs
Shouting and ranting all the way along the line
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Now this worry-some swim coach and desperate swim team
They have made a huge effort, in a way to keep the team
The Y still stays open, thanks to many donations
i hear that it's the best non-profit organization
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
There was a desperate swim coach and he had a suffering team
They had broken goggles and a lot of shattered dreams
The sad assistant coach always swam while still in school
They don't what to do 'bout their failing YMCA pool
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Well this melancholy coach and his suffering team and Y
Started pitching in, in a way to save the Y
Formed a member mob filled with many picket signs
Shouting and ranting all the way along the line
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Now this worry-some swim coach and desperate swim team
They have made a huge effort, in a way to keep the team
The Y still stays open, thanks to many donations
i hear that it's the best non-profit organization
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
(Ah, Ah)
Oh no, don't let the Y close down
My team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown
Oh yes, my team needs a swimming pool so they won't frown

I agree. I should literally head to the Bay Area School of Dance to become a beginner male ballet dancer. Favorite place to go to: The YMCA.
