The Mermaid Lagoon

“The Mermaid Lagoon”
Creatures of the sea
Swimming all around me
They scare me, I scare them
I make no attempt to pretend
But they intrigue me and I them
Invite me to stay, come out to play
Swim the night and day away.
I now live in the mermaid lagoon
I pray we won’t become harpooned
We now rule the mermaid lagoon
Dream came true so soon
I love living in the mermaid lagoon
We get accused of sending sailors
To their deaths, holding their last breath
To the depths of the sea they go
Burning in hell, the ne’er do wells
Bottom of the sea is your prison cell
I now live in the mermaid lagoon
I pray we won’t become harpooned
We now rule the mermaid lagoon
Dream came true so soon
I love living in the mermaid lagoon
I will marry no prince
No one can convince
Me, I just want to be free
And I pray I will succeed
I now live in the mermaid lagoon
I pray we won’t become harpooned
We now rule the mermaid lagoon
Dream came true so soon
I love living in the mermaid lagoon
