Mental Floss Songtext
von Jimmy Buffett

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

In one ear and out the other
Don′t you get crisscrossed
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 nights
All those insects and vipers
And other things that bite


In one ear and out the other
Don′t you get crisscrossed
I recommend you try a little mental floss

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

It′s in one ear and out the other
Don′t you get crisscrossed
I recommend you try a little mental floss

It's in one ear and out the other
Don′t you get crisscrossed
I recommend you try a little mental floss

Yeah, don't forget to floss every day
Mental
