Little Mermaid, Grown-up I gave myself a second chance Traded the legs for a tail And got back my tongue I returned to my lonely rock My lower half fish scaled and Comfortably numb I sing for myself now On nights of a full moon I still allow myself to be a woman Hidden from the eyes of the predators I do my dancing behind closed doors It is safer saner more sanitary that way August 2006
