Thing Called Springtime

Prev | Next

There's a Ten Ton Octopus lying on the floor
Says "who you calling octopus?" sinks and sleeps some more
He's a sedimental octopus, heavy on my brain
Oh the Ten Ton Octopus is driving me insane
Now, the 'Pus, he's got three keys for every limb
He says they keep things open, but man, they weigh down on him
He was a jingle jangle octopus, but winter stole the door
Doesn't think he matters anymore! Owwwowwwbububbubbubbbbowww!
Now this Thing Called Springtime, thinks that it's a rose
Nuzzles up to the Octopus and bubbles up his nose
And the Ten Ton Octopus rises up and grows
He swells out great big waves to crash the shore
He repeats, "I don't matter anymore!"
And he sinks back to the ocean floor
But the Thing Called Springtime yanks him back again
Joins him in my brain
Now this Thing Called Springtime's driving me insane
