lyrics

Jellyfish gets younger as the days go by
It's aging backward, turritopsis dohrnii
Through its noble simplicity
Could we achieve immortality

Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole

Black holes growing way out in space
Maybe one's expanding somewhere near this place
Don't get too close or you could slip away
Oh how embarrassing; what would the neighbors say

Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole

You see me slowing down
But I don't know it
To me it's all the same
And I don't show it
I don't see any jellyfish
In this hole I'm in
Gonna have to learn to fall
While I forget to swim

Shedding off the years while it's floating in the sea
Jellyfish can solve the most vexing mystery
I'd like to know the secret so death could not detain us
But I'm not sure how I feel about my mouth becoming my anus

Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole
Jellyfish in a black hole

Got it, got it, got it, got it
