Let's Get Down
Fishbowl Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I was a youth,
Id see many things,
All the girls, all the boys,
Birds and Bees

Yes, I wake up thinking of you,
Your face and mine together,
What is this I think I feel

[Chorus]
I wanna feel the sunshine on my head,
I wanna see your face when I wake up.
Lets get down, Lets get down, Lets get down, down, down
I wanna be the light that's in your life,
I wanna feel the sunshine all the time.
Lets get down, Lets get down, Lets get down, down, down

When I was a youth,
Id see many things,
All the girls, All the boys
Birds and Bees, Uh

I wake up thinking of you,
Your face and mine together
What is this I think I feel

[Chorus]

Lets get down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down





[Chorus]
