Intro: verse 1 We went down to the edge of the water You were afraid to go in You said there might be sharks out there in the ocean And I said I'm only going for a swim I was swimming around in a circle I wasn't always in view You said we might get into red flag danger And I am alone when I'm not with you But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid And I am no fisherman's slave I am no mermaid I am no mermaid I keep my head above the waves verse 2 We were swinging from the centre of the ceiling You were afraid to give in I said i know I'll always live for this feeling And you closed your eyes you said never again I was dancing in the middle of the desert You said we'll burn under the hot sun I said I'd rather be the colour of the pleasure Than watch like you from under the thumb But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid And I am no fisherman's slave I am no mermaid I am no mermaid I keep my head above the waves verse 3 We went down to the edge of the water You were afraid to go in You said there might be sharks out there in the ocean And I said I'm only going for a swim I was living around in a circle I wasn't always In view You said we might get into red flag danger And I am alone when I'm not with you But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid And I am no fisherman's slave I am no mermaid I am no mermaid I keep my head above the waves And I am no mermaid I am no mermaid And I am no fisherman's slave I am no mermaid I am no mermaid I keep my head above the waves OUTRO
