Tidal Wave Lyrics
A foot in the street and a foot in the gutter
That's one foot in the morning rain
Just 'round the corner a hole full of water
Hot dog, it's a holiday
Splish splash in a pool or puddle
Don't trip up on a tidal wave
You'll crash in a murky muddle and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
I went for a walk and I climbed up the tower
It seemed like a thousand years
'Til I reached the top, oh, and I picked a flower
That grew through the stratosphere
Drop down to a cloud or jetstream
Don't trip up on a weathervane
You'll drown in a world of wet dreams and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
I wrote a letter and I gave it to Jenny
I hoped for some return
The next time I saw her she gave me a penny
Wrapped up in a gummy worm
Run 'round in a field or meadow
Don't trip up on a sugar cane
Fall down in a lazy shadow and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
That's one foot in the morning rain
Just 'round the corner a hole full of water
Hot dog, it's a holiday
Don't trip up on a tidal wave
You'll crash in a murky muddle and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
It seemed like a thousand years
'Til I reached the top, oh, and I picked a flower
That grew through the stratosphere
Don't trip up on a weathervane
You'll drown in a world of wet dreams and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real
I hoped for some return
The next time I saw her she gave me a penny
Wrapped up in a gummy worm
Don't trip up on a sugar cane
Fall down in a lazy shadow and,
And you'll know how it feels
To know you're not real

I love this song but I have no idea what it's about
I have no explanation for all the lyrics but I'll be damned if a lot of it doesn't sound like an acid trip of some kind. And I know it feels alright too haha.
