Bubble Toes Lyrics

Bubble Toes

It’s as simple as something that nobody knows,
that her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes on the feet of a queen of the hearts
of the cards,
and her feet are all covered with tar balls and scars.
It’s a common as something that nobody knows,
that her beauty will follow wherever she goes,
up the hill in the back of her house in the woods.
She loves me forever, I know, she could.
I remember when, you and me, how we used to be just good friends,
wouldn’t give me none, but all I wanted was some.
She’s gotta whole lotta reasons she can’t think of a single one that can justify
leavin.
He got none but he thinks he got so many problems and he got too much time
to waste.
His dreams are like commercial but her dreams are picture perfect,
and our dreams are so related though they’re often underestimated.
It’s as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big as her
bubbly toes,
on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards,
and her feet are infested with tarballs.

Well I was eating lunch at the DLG when this little girl came and she sat next to
me.
Never seen nobody move like she did.
Well she did and she does and she’ll do it again.
When you move like a jellyfish rhythm don’t mean nothing you go with the flow,
you don’t stop.
Move like a jellyfish rhythm is nothing you go with the flow you don’t stop.

It’s as common as something that nobody knows,
that her beauty will follow wherever she goes,
up the hill in the back of her house in the woods.
She love me forever I know she...
If you would only listen you might just realize what you’re missing you’re
missing me.
If you would only listen you might just realize what you’re missing you’re
missing me.
Its as simple as something as something that nobody knows,
that her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes.
On the feet of a queen ,
of the hearts on the cards,
and her feet are infested with tarballs.

my girlfriend walked in on me singing in front of the mirror to this song

An error occured.

dude, i just heard this song, and heard "DLG" and thought UCSB!!! could it be?!?

AND IT WAS!!!
...i'm giddy as a school girl that I got that reference. someone pat me on the head

This is definitely a toe-tappin' tune, but the part I love best is the line "If you would only listen you might just realize what you're missing, you're missing me." It explains miscommunication so very well. I can't add to it, it's just genius.

I have always wondered, what the heck are "tar balls"? Should I know this already?

Other than that, I have to say I find this song delightful. I like Jack's whimsical lyrics, like "she moves like a jellyfish," and his style of delivery perfectly complements them.

I also like how all of Jack's song portray the ambivalence of love - he sees this woman's imperfections very well, but his main complaint is that she doesn't listen.

YOu get tar balls on your feet from walking around the beaches of southern california, maybe other ones. I grew up surfing Bolsa Chica and my feet would literally have tar on the bottom that took serious scrubbing to get off. that might have something to do with why there are oil rigs out there.

But that line makes my family smile because it reminds us of the good days before I hade to move, and we were all happy. hahah one happy tar covered family.

On the beaches in San Diego where he met his wife there is tar that seeps through the sand and sticks to your feet. Also the "DLG" is a dining hall at their college

i love the connections that only a few people will get from this song . . . ^_^

Jack Johnson graduated from UCSB and the DLG is the De La Guerra Dining Commons . . . it's cool thinking how cool it is that i might be sitting in the same spot as he is when he saw that girl

his style of music fits his background of a UCSB surfer and film maker . . . very laid back and relaxing . . . perfect song for beach parties

An error occured.

This guy is such a great songwriter, this song's awesome. Jack Johnson's SO big in Santa Cruz, since half of us are just washed up surfers with seawater flowing through our ears. But yah, he does good job of taking her imperfections along with her good things. A must in anything is to realize the bad with the goo.

the "tar balls" on her feet could be the tar from walking on the beach.
