She asked me once, told me twice
She was looking for a friend, to take ride
With love in her heart, lust in her eyes
Lured me to the water, by surprise

Floated the heaven of the undersea world
I was just boy, she wasn’t a girl
A women of power, with lust like rage
Thunderous heart, a man I became

She, she understood, that I was afraid
Yeah, she, she understood, that I’d never been laid
Smiled and went for a swim with a NY mermaid
Dreamy day with a New York mermaid
She took me all the way home

Washed ashore, by mercy or hate
I recovered alone and she went away
Upside down, inside out
Left for dead, left all night

She, she understood, that I was afraid
Yeah, she, she understood, that I’d never been laid
Smiled and went for a swim with a NY mermaid
Dreamy day with a New York mermaid
She took me all the way home
