Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm talking about Ariel, that's who
What about her?
She sure is acting fishy lately
I'll say, swimming in circles, chasing her tail?
That girl is up to her gills in something
[Verse 2]
She's dizzy and she's dreamy, her head's up in the foam
Her eyes have gone all gleamy, it's like there's no one home
She floats away the days moping on the coastal shelf
[Verse 3]
You ask her where she's going, she giggles like a fool
She barely sticks a toe in down at the tidal pool
It's more than just a phase
Face it, she's just not herself
Is she ill, or insane?
Is it water on the brain?
What has got her bothered so?
It's the bends, it's the flu
Gosh, I wish we had a clue
Oh, wait, oh, dear
Good grief, it's clear
[Verse 4]
She's in love, she's in love
Pounding heart, ringing bells
Look, I think she's even wearing brand new shells
[Verse 5]
She's in love (In love and it's divine)
She's in love (That girl's on sandbar nine)
Glory be, Lord above
Got to be, she's in love
[Verse 6]
Hey, Flounder!
Do you notice anything weird about, you-know-who?
You mean Ariel? I'll say
She acts like she don't see me, she doesn't even speak
She treats me like sashimi left over from last week
You see her late at night, tossing in her ocean bed
She's moody as a snapper, oblivious as rocks
You swim right up and tap her, she lays there like a lox
As sure as dogfish bite, something's made her lose her head
(She has lost her head)
And she sighs and she swoons, and she's humming little tunes
(Even has a sort of glow)
What on earth could it be?
Any hammerhead can see
That sigh, that glow, that swoon
Oh, no!
[Verse 7]
She's in love
(She's flipped, it never fails)
She's in love
(All hot beneath her scales)
Seen her hips, how they swish
Well, don't you wonder who's the lucky seafood dish?
She's in love
(She's found a deep sea hunk)
She's in love
(And now she's as good as sunk)
See her blush, see her grin
Got to be love she's in
[Verse 8]
Ariel and someone, swimming in the sea
K-I-S-S-I-N-G
Her cheeks could not blush pinker
It's clear as H20
She's caught hook, line and sinker
Crushed out, switched on
Worked up, far gone
Knocked down, hard hit
In deep, that's it!
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
[Verse 9]
She's in love
She's in love
Plain to see (Plain to see)
No mistake (No mistake)
Look at those moonbeams in her wake
Obvious what they must be symptoms of
She's in love
She's in love
She's in love
Yeah, yeah
