Ballad of the Mer Lyrics
Don't linger in the waters
Where the merfolk are at play
The ocean's sons and daughters
Will lead our kind astray
Though many is a sailor
Who has found themselves on land
After meeting with the strange mer
That they could not understand
It seems they care for no reward
For tender ministration
When we have toppled overboard
In our inebriation
But if it's you they've chosen
They'll surround you with their kin
Your legs are bound and frozen
In a wrap of silver skin
Soon you'll be understanding
All that passes from their tongues
No food you'll be demanding
Nor fresh air to fill your lungs
And they'll take you as their brother
Or their sister as they please
And you'll be just another
Of the merfolk in the seas
