SINGER: Jimmy Buffett

SONG:Mental Floss

Lyrics by jimmy buffett
music by buffett, kunkel, guth, p.mayer & j. mayer
i'd like to be a jellyfish
'cause jellyfish don't pay rent
they don't walk and they don't talk
with some euro-trash accent
they're just simple protoplasm
clear as cellophane
they ride the winds of fortune
life without a brain
(chorus)
in one ear and out the other
don't you get criss-crossed
i recommend you try a little
mental floss
It's the small, small problems
that keep me so upset
and send me seeking shelter
beneath my mosquito net
I stay there for hours
protected from the night
all those insects and vipers
and other things that bite
(chorus)
I'd like to be a jellyfish
'cause jellyfish don't pay rent
they don't walk and they don't talk
with some euro-trash accent
they're just simple protoplasm
clear as cellophane
they ride the winds of fortune
life without a brain
(chorus)
in one ear and out the other
don't you get criss-crossed
i recommend you try a little
mental floss
