This funk single by "Nick Ross and The Patriots" was released at the peak of the a*ds fear ep*demic / media prop*ganda campaign during the early 1980s. Nick wrote this song to mock the fear and paranoia being spread by the g*vernment and media, which at that time was making people afraid to swim, even in the middle of a summer heat wave.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We're in the middle of a heat wave
But you need to close the pool today
No joke its a serious matter
You need someone to block the ladder

[Verse 2]
Had to slap a b*tch right in the face
She was bleeding all over the place
Now the water may test positive
Best close the pool if you wanna live

[Chorus]
Pools closed (pools closed)
Pools closed for today
Pools closed (pools closed)
Pools closed due to a*ds

[Bridge]
Summer is here can't get any hotter
But we can't swim because there's blood in the water
Don't swim if you don't wanna get a*ds
Don't swim unless you're already g*y

[Verse 3]
I cut a b*tch on the water slide
Stuck in the tube cuz her a** was too wide
Now there's aids at the water park
More dangerous than swimming with sharks

[Outro]
Block the ladder, block block the ladder
Block the ladder, block block the ladder
You don't wanna get aids b*tch
