Modern Little Mermaid


I am a mermaid that wishes to live on the land
Up there is a gem
Down here life is bland

Yet I need more to be with them.

 

I hear your desire

I may have the fix

I might have what you require

How about some prosthetics.

 

With the might of modern medicine

Your one tail becomes two

Up there you will run

And have your desire become true.

 

With these shiny legs and feet

My prince I can meet.
