The Sailor, Maiden, and Siren
She lured you in just as sirens drag sailors into the sea
Then you, you fell into her trap, lovesick with glowing eyes, a feathery smile, and trembling knees
you felt as though she was your world
As if there were no other girl
But she, she found another victim to seize
And you, you just lay there, with your empty eyes, somber smile, and trembling knees
Filled with anger, you,you stomped along
Wondering, how could you ever be tranced with a song
Your very own weapon, how could that be?
You thought that you ruled the seas
So along you went, with disgust and resent
Regretting that distasteful siren that was sent
Time went on, and you met the Siren again
This time, she's hoping that you'll just be friends
So you nod in agreement, happy amends have met
The deal is on, and your friendship is set
But You have a new maiden, that you love and adore
And that siren friend of yours, treats her like a sore
The siren, with evil, she scowls at her grace
And in the beginning, your maiden does nothing but laugh at her face
Joyous and carefree you and your maiden make love
Oh, but look, what's that up above ?
It's the siren, of course, as she screeches her tune
Her filthy wings and ragged nails cover the light of the moon
Your maiden beloved, she shrivels in pain
While you, young sailor float down the wrong lane
Back to the siren that you twice adored
Now you'll merely be another collection of her hoard
You see, young sailor, open your eyes
When your maiden loves you well, take no siren for disguise
