Jellyfish
Ocean Alley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Slip'n′slide and swerving
My way through life
Nothing's too concerning
Record keeps on turning
It feels so right
Everything's so wavy
Feeling kinda lazy
Finding somewhere shady
Blazing with your lady
???
Wouldn′t it be lovely
If everything was bubbly
Nothing should be ugly
Just fuzzy warm and cuddling
I′ve been tipsy-topsy turning
Slip'n′slide and swerving
My way through life
Nothing's too concerning
Record keeps on turning
It feels so right
Everything′s so wavy
Feeling kinda lazy
In paradise
Finding somewhere shady
Blazing with your lady
???
Wouldn't it be lovely
If everything was bubbly
Nothing should be ugly
Just fuzzy warm and cuddling
Wouldn′t it be lovely
If everything was bubbly
Nothing should be ugly
Just fuzzy warm and cuddling
