Jellyfish Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm fucking hideous and spiteful
When I'm left to my devices
I soak my tentacles in ice baths
If you feel a draft

[Chorus]
I'll be home indoors, I'll be home indoors
Because I'm wasting away my life and gifts
On being a jellyfish

[Verse 2]
Same thing I wish for every new year
Cuz I'm lazy and a loser
They don't come true I'm blaming everyone but myself

[Chorus]
I'll be home indoors, I'll be home indoors
Because I'm wasting away my life and gifts
On being a piece of shit

[Bridge]
Should I go shake out on the sidewalk
Or should I stay inside and shine in artificial light
If I could I would do it so much better off than try
I won't be failing if I don't so
I'll sit with stingers ready
In case somebody comes
To fill my head with petty jealousy
And show me all the things I could be doing
If I were a vertebrate, but it's comfortable
Not wondering at all if I'd've made it

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
