The Hungry Mermaid

Ever hear of the true story?

Of the mermaid in the sea.

This is rather gory.

 

A gold kingdom in the ocean.

A gulible red haired princess.

The tale is in motion.

 

From seeing a handsome man.

And growing curiosity.

She couldn't help but think of a plan.

 

Her father wouldn't know.

No one had too.

She let the hunger grow.

 

From her beauty and grace.

Having him wouldn't be hard.

To taste his smooth face.

 

To have a taste of flesh.

Nothing from the ocean.

Hard part, she wanted it fresh.

 

It didn't take long

On his boat.

You could hear her song.

 

On the edge.

She reached for him.

There he went off the ledge.

 

From blue waves to red.

No one saw him fall.

That's all what was said.
