Jealousy
Oh, her voice
Sweet and enthralling
Honed by Apollo himself
Made to haze any man
That dared hear her
With a voice that could crash a ship
Or make a clueless man
Fall for her lullaby
And, oh, her beauty
Like if Aphrodite
Had crafted her in her womb
Bestowing her a fiery mane
As red as the crimson blood
That made those plump limps
Jump from her face
A face that could blind
That could bend a man's will
And, oh, her heart
Her purity and zealousness
Like if Zelus had grazed her
With that lovely laughter of him
For the seven seas
She makes me gag
Just because she's Triton and Athena's sweet daughter
She thinks she can get that lovely prince
With his eyes that call of home
The ocean...
A place that dreads me too
I hate her
I hate her and I want what she has
Just because she's pretty
And me...
Me...
I'm nothing next to her
A wicked witch in a horrendous body
A wicked creation doomed to wreak havoc
Maybe...
Yes, yes, yes
What's most precious to her
I'll steal
And use it
Magic can help me
I'll trade this awful tentacles for soft legs
A body that would make a man's jaw hit the hard ground
A face that will hypnotize
And with that voice...
He'll be mine
