Mulling It Over
Contemplating Life's Symphony: Mulling It Over by Blues Traveler
Lyrics
I'm mulling it over
I am contemplating it carefully.
Thoughts at a grasp
Reflecting on thoughts within reach.
You know I'm taking it in now
Acknowledging and absorbing the situation.
So much, so fast
Feeling overwhelmed by the abundance of information or experiences.
I'm riding a feeling
Experiencing a profound emotion or sensation.
Into deeper seas
Delving into more profound aspects or depths.
I can't seem to fret now
Not allowing the situation to cause worry or stress.
It don't bother me
Maintaining a carefree attitude.
'Cause I'm mulling it over, yeah
Reiterating the act of thoughtful consideration.
Said I'm mulling it over
Emphasizing the ongoing process of contemplation.
I said I'm mulling it over
-I said I'm mulling it over
-Oh, mulling it over
Continuing the process of careful consideration.
I said I'm mulling it mulling it
Repeating the phrase for emphasis and rhythm.
Mulling it mulling it
-Mulling it over mulling it over
-Twinkle twinkle little star
Introducing unrelated thoughts or distractions.
Wish I could afford a guitar
Expressing a desire for something, possibly a luxury like a guitar.
Sing a song of sixpence, pocketful of rye
Quoting nursery rhymes to convey a wish for something more substantial.
Wish it was more than crumbs I could buy
-Meet forever after
Referring to a long-lasting commitment or relationship.
Don't he dress real well
Commenting on someone's appearance and style.
You know he's clutching his chest now
Observing physical discomfort or distress in someone.
Or couldn't you tell
-Desperate to score now
Describing the desperation to achieve a goal despite challenges.
No matter how hard he tries
-You know he's strung out on future
Highlighting the impact of future aspirations on someone's demeanor.
See it in his eyes
-And I'm mulling it over
Repeating the theme of thoughtful contemplation.
Said I'm mulling it over
-I said I'm mulling it over
-I said I'm mulling it over
-And over and over and over and over, yeah
Emphasizing the continuous and repetitive nature of the contemplation process.
