After many years have finally finished writing the Jellyfish Song 😀
Irukandji
Irukandji you are my favourite jellyfish,
Irukandji but you are so much more than this,
Irukandji you are so small, yet so powerful,
I would not want you, in my swimming pool
Irukandji…
Irukandji you make the box one seem so weak,
Irukandji your venom is so deadly yet so sweet,
Irukandji you are so small, yet so powerful,
I would not want you, to sting my friend Paul,
Irukandji…
Irukandji you are just so poisonous,
Irukandji you remind me of the Blue ringed octopus,
Irukandji you are so small, yet so powerful,
I would not want you, in my high school musical,
Irukandji…
Irukandji the great white means nothing to me, but
Irukandji you are the reason I keep out the sea,
Irukandji you are so small, yet so powerful,
I would not want to meet you, in a whirlpool,
Irukandji…
Irukandji you should be friends with a pufferfish,
Irukandji but stay away from my favourite dish,
Irukandji even though we’ve never met…you would be my favourite water pet,
I would give you your own aquarium, your own solarium,
have you looked after by a vegetarian,
Irukandji…
Irukandji you’re not like the taipan or Beaked sea snake,
Irukandji I could not find you swimming in a lake…
No, Irukandji you are my favourite jellyfish,
Irukandji but you are so much much more than this,
You are so small yet so powerful,
I would not want u in my swimming pool,
Irukandji…
THE END!
