Beware
Deep down in the ocean where the blue and black meet
There's a wonderous creature very known but unique
Comes out during the day and sleeps through the night
Hiding in the shadows, out of the humans' plain sight
Now you're splashing and playing and you think you can swim
You're going further and further and it's starting to look grim
It's wanting to come out because it knows you can't see
You're in the midst of its target, you appeared unwillingly
And you start to feel it tug and you're starting to get scared
A sign floating by with a "Mermaids Beware!"
And somehow you're stranded far away from the shore
An air full of mystery but you're begging for more
"It's time," you hear, "It's time," she says as she pulls you from the top
One final breath of air you take and then you're begging her to stop
It's too late now you're in her reach and you turn to take a look
A gorgeous view awaits your eyes and now your hearts been hooked
She bites and claws and tears your face and you're screaming full of pain
Then suddenly it gets quiet and now the ocean has your stain
She gulps you down and cleans her mouth and her teeth are colored red
So back again to the top she goes and now your friends are dead
Now a little girl is walking, right along the shore
The Mermaids back to fetch her prey so she's waiting for some more
Little girl be careful or else you'll end up dead
People are quickly disappearing and the ocean's full of dread
