eels – goldy lyrics
[verse 1]
i stumbled on a marilyn mccoo
i didn’t know what to do
so hot her chimney smoked
forgot to open the flue
and smoke filled up the room
man, i really choked
[chorus]
ain’t it funny how the only one i need in the world
is a goldfish swimming in a bowl? (oh goldy)
it’s kinda funny how the only one i need in the world
is a goldfish swimming in a bowl
[verse 2]
thumbin’ through the classifieds
found a girl looking for a guy
as long as he’s into furries
now i’m putting on my fancy clothes
i combed my hair, even wearing a bowtie
the tail between my legs has got me worried
[chorus]
ain’t it funny how the only one i need in the world
is a goldfish swimming in a bowl? (oh goldy)
it’s kinda funny how the only one i need in the world
is a goldfish swimming in a bowl
[bridge]
a lotta fish in the sea
but he’s sticking with me
a lotta fish in the sea
but he’s all that i need
a lotta fish in the sea (ain’t it funny how the only one i need in the world)
but he’s sticking with me (is a goldfish swimming in a bowl?)
a lotta fish in the sea (ain’t it funny how the only one i need in the world)
but he’s all that i need (is a goldfish swimming in a bowl?)
yeah
[verse 3]
send me off to paradise
please forgive me all my vices
i’ve done my best
tried not to mess with this world
i think i’m gonna fly my friend
start this life all over again
even if i come back twice
it’s nice to imagine goldy being mine
