The Mermaid See Blues

Unicorns were so last album. That's not what the kids want no more. Now Greville and the Tombstones is bringing Mermaids back.

Yeah - all about the mermaids with the alt-gothic kids.

Here is the first tuneless song for the second not real album by an imaginary alt-gothic band:


The See Mermaid Blues

My soul down as a shipwreck
Shoals of demons swim above
The sunken treasure of my love
I swam through, sweet mermaid,
Seaweed the deadly nightshade
Of sea-witch brew
Wanting to be with you, dear
But far-off stars you wish upon
Are merely fluorescent plankton

Your big eyes paler blue
Than any love so true
That could ever be
I didn't see
They were the bolt not the key
Your sea chest,
Davey Jones locker

I thought you were so attractive
But it was just the refractive
Nature of the water
Oh Yeah, oh yeah
It’s a curse
I see mermaids
