There once was a jellyfish named Natalie
She swam through the ocean so happily
So sweet she was, brave she was
Until one day she noticed some flaws
Her tentacles were pink, not like her friends in the deep
Unbeknownst to her, her crown was striped brown
Oh no she can’t go to town, the fishy's will think she looks like a clown.
She wanted to take a leap
Into the inky black eternal sleep.
Who can she go to, who can explain?
Who she is and why is she such a strange Mary Jane
After searching for days
As luck would have it there were no delays
An elder jellyfish came bopping along
like popcorn banging on a big green gong.
Singing a folk song all the day long
It went like this:
Here in the ocean we don’t all look alike
Some are rainbow, some are white.
Be happy with your colors
You’re cool the way you are
You’re wonderful and perfect just like a star.
Now Natalie the jellyfish started to cry
Realizing she had been too hard on herself and not knowing why.
She vowed to herself right then and there
No more unhappiness
I’m super as I am rare.
No more will I cry, no more will I wonder
I know I am complete and I will shout it like thunder.
Natalie the jellyfish swam away
Delighted at her newfound freedom.
She swam the ocean deep in a new kind of play
She was back to herself just sweet as can be
Happy again in the deep blue sea.
