Mermaid Blues

Every morning when the sun comes up I sing to you from dawn till dusk But you never listen to the sound of the sea You'd never jump into the ocean for me Well, it's easy for you to make a fool out of me You say I'm the worst mermaid that you've ever seen But I swear, captain, soon you'll fall for me And when I'll rescue you, you'll say you're sorry I feel so lonely under the sea But I keep you hoping you will come to me I f you would only listen to my sound And jump into the water, I would not let you drown You know that I don't feel so good Without love down in this ocean blue When even the blob fish got engaged I lost all hope, I got so enraged I know my hair don't curl no more My voice doesn't have no tremolo I smell a bit like a jellyfish And I ain't got no knees to beg for my wish I'm giving up, my voice is getting sore Soon I won't be able to sing no more This is the last song I sing for you My voice and my heart both break in two Oh sorry, daddy, I wish I had more luck And honestly I never thought I would end up Being served on a plate by an old fisherman Who finally sees me for what I am
