Lyrics
[Verse]
In a tiny coastal town
Where the waves meet the shore
There was a little oyster
Named Jacques
Who wanted more
He loved to dive in the sea
With his friends by his side
But one night he had too much
And Jacques took quite a ride
[Verse]
He stumbled into a pub
With an oyster's charm so sly
Ordered up a drink
Said "Give me the strongest you've got
Guy"
The bartender looked confused
But handed him a glass
Little did they know
This would be a night of pure
Drunken class
[Verse]
With every sip he took
Jacques started to feel alive
His shell opened wide
As he caught everyone's eye
He danced on the bar
Waved his pearl to and fro
The crowd cheered him on
Shouting "Oyster
Let's go!"
[Verse]
As the night wore on
Jacques felt his head start to spin
But he shrugged it off
With another drink, he'd win
He sang with the band
In a voice loud and clear
But soon enough, his antics
Would disappear
[Verse]
When the morning light broke
Jacques woke with a start
His head was pounding
And his stomach felt like tartar
He vowed then and there
No more drinks would he take
For Jacques the oyster
Had learned from his mistake
[Verse]
In the shimmering waves,
Jacques found peace at last,
No more blurry nights,
Or memories from the past.
He danced with the currents,
In the moon's gentle glow,
Content in the knowledge,
That his true self would show.
[Verse]
Amongst coral castles,
And seagrass so green,
Jacques found his purpose,
In a world serene.
No need for the chaos,
Of the human realm,
For in the ocean's embrace,
He found his true helm.
[Verse]
So let this be a tale,
Of redemption and light,
Of finding one's way,
In the darkest of night.
For Jacques the oyster,
Though he stumbled astray,
Found his true home,
In the ocean's pure sway.
[Verse]
So let this be a tale,
Of redemption and light,
Of finding one's way,
In the darkest of night.
For Jacques the oyster,
Though he stumbled astray,
Found his true home,
In the ocean's pure sway.
[chorus]
So let this be a tale,
Of redemption and light,
Of finding one's way,
In the darkest of night.
For Jacques the oyster,
Though he stumbled astray,
Found his true home,
In the ocean's pure sway.
