Fiji Mermaid |
| Stitch up the nets but the patch won’t stay |
| As the nail beds rest in the calico hay |
| The Fiji Mermaid dressed in macrame’s |
| Wading road in the fork and a bend |
| In the spoon tern cut short as a shadow at noon |
| Melting like wax as that once full moon’s |
| Now waning ersatz acts an insufferable bore |
| 'Sharp Shots' dull as a harlequin’s sword |
| When doing as you please doesn’t please you anymore |
| Stick of the match as the paraffin show |
| Drop a nickel to watch the asparagus grow |
| 'The stone in what shell?' |
| You sure like to know now don’t you? |
| A loom in the heir as the medicine came |
| To the nest of the mare of the mystery claims |
| But you’ll miss having someone to blame |
| For your sadness, now won’t you? |
| Well maybe there’ll be a bakery hiring |
| We’ll knead a little dough to get by |
| (Groan!) |
| Did you come knocking on my door |
| Or did I come to yours? |
| Whose ship came washed up on whose shore? |
| And from what ocean floor? |
| There wasn’t much to her dress |
| and I felt stuck in my body like a horse in quicksand… |
| Didn’t you come knocking on my door? |
