Funny Little Frog Lyrics

Lyric discussion by selftitlealbum 

Cover art for Funny Little Frog lyrics by Belle & Sebastian

this is obvosly, a great song.

my idea is that it could be about a past lover that the singer still is in love with, who may be dead or, the singers ideal lover. in ether case, when he says:

You are my girl, and you don't even know it I am livin' out the life of a poet I am the jester in the ancient court You're the funny little frog in my throat

i think this implies that this is somewhat of a dream, or vison, definily not somthing in realy life, but him saying that she is his funny little frog in his throat implys that he is always thinking about her and feels like she will always be with him. and the part that says

I am livin' out the life of a poet I am the jester in the ancient court

tells us that he dosent have the ideal life, beacuse he is only a jester, (maybe built to entertain this idea of a lover)

maybe the singer is a bit insane and he knows it.

(sorry for bad spelling... not my strong suite)
