Aspects of Love movie - Mermaid Song lyrics

rate me

<br>

JENNY:<br>

I am a mermaid<br>

With golden hair...<br>

<br>

ALEX:<br>

I've never seen one like you!<br>

<br>

JENNY:<br>

Not all us mermaids<br>

Have silver tails --<br>

I have no tail at all!<br>

<br>

ALEX:<br>

Well, I've never,<br>

Seen any mermaids<br>

With knobbly knees!<br>

I'd say this tale<br>

Was a touch too tall,<br>

Maybe a touch too tall...<br>

<br>

JENNY:<br>

Sailors would smash on<br>

My jagged rock,<br>

Lured by my siren's song...<br>

<br>

ALEX:<br>

It isn't the<br>

Song of the siren<br>

That tortures men --<br>

That's where your theory<br>

Goes sadly wrong,<br>

That's where it all goes wrong...<br>

<br>

JENNY:<br>

I thought you'd know better,<br>

You know nothing<br>

About mermaids.<br>

<br>

ALEX: (wry)<br>

You know nothing<br>

About sailors...<br>

<br>

JENNY:<br>

I do!<br>

Much more than you!<br>

If you were a sailor<br>

And heard my song,<br>

Would you be lured by me?<br>

<br>

ALEX:<br>

I wouldn't be<br>

Foolish enough to<br>

Go near your rock --<br>

I'd steer my galleon out to sea...<br>

<br>

BOTH:<br>

...Lonely and lost at sea...<br>

<br>
