The water looked inviting
                                 so I dipped in my toe
I swam in a circle
                             no particular place to go
The current then gripped me 
                               so I went with the flow

I heard the mermaid sing her song of love how could it fail
                                                        she was beckoning me with her tail
Follow me she smiled as she swam out of site
                          The current dragged me the other way to my delight
I swam and swam into the night until I heard the siren wail
               Don't dip your toe watery delight or be beckoned by her tail
