Lyrics
Jellyfish
© Joseph A. Najat 2004
Here?s where it started
Here?s where I met you
I knew on the phone
That I?d never forget you
Your eyes are alluring
Your lips are delicious
Your voice enchanting
Your spell is too vicious
Just like a Jellyfish
Beautiful
Poisonous
I want to touch you
I don?t know why
Your sting hurts me
And it makes me cry.
(Going down, to Santa Cruz)
Out on the sea
I?m out on the ocean
I?m in a quandary
I?m in a commotion
I see you
Floating along
I want to touch you
But I know it?s wrong
Just like a Jellyfish
Beautiful
Poisonous
I want to touch you
I don?t know why
Your sting hurts me
And it makes me cry.
Jellyfish, jellyfish
Jellyfish, jellyfish
Jellyfish, jellyfish
One more time!
Repeat Chorus Twice
