Lyrics

(Verse 1) We've been at sea for seven years, our sanity in doubt The only lasses we see are waves that splash and spout But tonight, a vision came, a sight to make us cheer A pod of mermaids singing, banishing all fear! (Chorus) With voices sweet and scales that gleam, they beckon from the waves We toss them rings and sing them songs, our hearts they cannot save They comb their seaweed hair and smile, with eyes so clear and bright Tonight we'll win their watery love, beneath the moon's soft light (Verse 2) We dive into the ocean deep, with promises we pledge To love them forever, these beauties on the ledge They sing us closer, arms outstretched, beneath the ocean's hold And in their watery embrace, our stories will unfold (Chorus) With kisses soft and bodies warm, they weave their magic spell We drown in their affection, and all is going well But then a touch, a slimy grip, and something feels amiss The moonlight cuts through water, revealing what we kiss (Bridge) The song is silent, smiles are gone, our hearts begin to sink These mermaids fair, with flowing hair, are nothing but we think Manatees, not maidens, with whom we've made our vow The salty truth comes crashing down, upon us somehow (Chorus) With kisses soft and bodies warm, they weave their magic spell We drown in their affection, and all is going well But then a touch, a slimy grip, and something feels amiss The moonlight cuts through water, revealing what we kiss (Bridge) The song is silent, smiles are gone, our hearts begin to sink These mermaids fair, with flowing hair, are nothing but we think Manatees, not maidens, with whom we've made our vow The salty truth comes crashing down, upon us somehow (Verse 3) We clamber back to ship in shame, defeated and confused The captain shouts, "Those weren't no maids, you fools were well-used!" With tattered sails and wounded pride, we turn away from shore The memory of our mermaid love, a lesson evermore (Outro) So raise a glass, ye salty dogs, to lessons learned at sea Beware the things that shimmer, beneath the moon, you see For ocean's beauty hides a beast, that's sure to set you free Just not the kind of freedom, you ever longed to see
