I always thought it was "us women" because of the nature of the song, but it probably is "I'm swimming", which also makes sense, albeit less on-the-nose (it is called Swimsuit Issue...). Fascinating song to listen to now, in the era of Weinstein and Trump; SY were always so far ahead of their time, both musically and lyrically.
@spaceotter I don't know what your 'at this time' is really meant to convey. Women have been the brunt of assault ever since there were two genders. Specifying a contemporary account doesn't mean that they were 'ahead of their time'. Nobody is a time traveler. Sonic Youth were phenomenal as a unit. Let's leave the gushing to others less evolved, shall we
