Goldfish Lyrics by Kenny Chesney
They say the Mayflower only lives one day
And a penguin only picks one mate
And dogs, well, they see it all in black and white
Butterflies’ll winter in Mexico
And geese always catch the same flight home
And elephants don’t forget a damn thing in this life
Right now, I wish
I had the memory of a goldfish
What’s love? Who gives a shit?
I wouldn’t even have a clue
Snug as a bug, happy as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn’t give a damn, but here I am
Drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just trying to get over you
Well, a grizzly bear, he gets a proper sleep
And a puma has a heck of a vertical leap
That crocodile loves to kill you with a smile
And the camel can go a month without a drink
But, me, I drown myself eight days a week
Filling up a fish bowl with all the tears I cry
Right now, I wish
I had the memory of a goldfish
What’s love? Who gives a shit?
I wouldn’t even have a clue
Snug as a bug, happy as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn’t give a damn, but here I am
Three sheets to the wind and two-thirds gone
I’m drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just trying to get over you
Snug as a bug, happy as a clam
Blissfully, I wouldn’t give a damn, but here I am
Three sheets to the wind and two-thirds gone
While that goldfish is out there, moving on
Singing his happy “Go Fish” song
While I’m drunk as a skunk in a honky tonk
Just trying to get over you
