Bijou Phillips - Mermaid And The Earthman Lyrics

Artist: Bijou Phillips

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Jill Cunniff, Bijou Mary Phillips

I was shocked when I saw him
I guess, he was looking for me
So I crawled out of the deep dark sea
I came up on the sand and asked him who he be

And he said he was a sailor
And he sat and opened up to me
His ship had sank and a mermaid had saved him
And he said she looked like me
Oh yeah, she looked like me

Did you say you saw a mermaid?
And she looks a little like me
I will always be your mermaid
I will always be your mer baby

All the gray days I dreamed about you
I would call upon the sleeping waves
I can't live one more day without you
I swore I'd find a way to bring you back with me

So I asked my father Titan
To break down and open up the sea
I just hope that you aren't frightened
It's difficult you see to bring you back with me

So come on say you love a mermaid
And she looks a little like me
I will always be your mermaid
We'll live in the sea and make mer babies

'Cause you know I love an earthman
And he looks a little like you
I want you to be my mer man
We'll live in the sea and make mer babies

Atlantic, Pacific, The Indian Ocean
Mediterranean Sea, Baltic, Dead Sea
The Black and the Red Sea
The Agean and Arabian Gulf
The Arctic, Antarctic China Sea
Are all coming into me

(The spectacular part)
You're not a man anymore
You're one with the sea

Did you say you loved a mermaid
And she looks a little like me
I will always be your mermaid
I will always be your mer baby

Did you say you love a mermaid
And she looks a little like me
I will always be your mermaid
I will always be your mer baby

'Cause you know I loved an earthman
And he looked a little like you
Baby now you are my merman
And we live in the sea and make mer babies

(The spectacular part)
You are not a man anymore
You're one with the sea
