Floaty Lyrics

he floats
floats away
on the ground
he comes back down
she floats
floats away
on the ground
she comes back down
they float
float away
on the ground
they come back down
we float
float away
on the ground
we come back down
that's not as big as
what's flown around here

Cover art for Floaty lyrics by Foo Fighters

I think its crap so many people think almost all of the foo fighters songs are about kurt and nirvana. He has other things to write about other than the short time he spent in that band.

i think this song is about how everyone thinks they are so big and bad and really they are just the same as everyone else... everyone gets high on their own things and they think they are greater than everyone else, but theres always someone who is better, cooler, bigger, whatever.

"thats not as big as whats flown around here" kind of says it all i think.

Great song

I think this track is about UFOs and possibly alien abductions. Dave once said that one of the songs off the first album referred to UFOs but didn't say which one. If that is the case, I'd say this song is a strong candidate for being the one he was referring to.

It would also fit in with the theme behind the name of the band, Foo Fighters were the names given to the unidentifed aircraft that were present during WWII.

It is about UFOs, dave said it, it was a dream he had involving UFOs. It was inevitable, seeing as the album had a Disintigrator on the front

I think it's about shit, in the toilet. "that's not as big as what's flown around here"

@Monkeywrench74 i couldn't not laugh at this i'm sorry

i'm pretty certain these lyrics have been put in the wrong order. I think it should be:

he floats floats away on the ground he comes back down

they float float away on the ground they come back down

she floats floats away on the ground she comes back down

we float float away on the ground we come back down

that's not as big as what's flown around here

sorry, didn't mention, after this order, it changes to the order that was originally posted i think. then it chnages again..., and, oh just forget it!
