I was last of seven, Mother was in heaven.
My king was my dad, and boy could he get mad.
He wanted me to sing, I, to collect human things.
I was obsessed with one boy, prized more than mere toys.
One time I missed a song, apparently very wrong.
My Dad found my cave, treasures I could not save.
I swam off upset, Sebastian, safety he would bet.
Found underwater lair, sea goddess would scare.
Ursula promised fame, more to come to my name.
I traded away by choice, to have legs but no voice.
I began to drown, slowly weighed down.
Founder took me to shore, to stay for three days more.
I met the boy prince, words I could not mince.
He looked at me strange, As though I was deranged.
I wobbled on my new feet, on these strange streets.
I didn't fit in well, that much I could tell.
But the prince showed me round, Introduced me to his town.
But I needed that kiss, chances we would miss.
Then someone stole my song, situation felt wrong.
Vanessa was her claim, But Ursula was her true name.
The witch had taken my man, to succeed in her plan.
On my third day, she took him away.
They were set to marry; I knew I could not tarry.
Scuttle came between them, Sebastian attacked her hem.
Then the necklace broke, her voice became a croak.
Sea Monster she became, all was clear in her game.
My tail and voice came back to me, now her slave – never free.
For my life and freedom, Father would trade his freedom.
As soon as she had the crown, Atlantic set to drown.
All seemed to be lost, we had paid too high a cost.
The finest ship in the realm and Eric was at the helm.
Drove prow into that b***h, No more was seen of witch.
As Eric feel into the sea, I took him to safety.
Dad got his Triton back, Cease, then, did the attack.
I'm the one Eric's been searching for, Wanted to stay forever more.
Our love my dad did bless, then to straighten up the mess;
Legs permanently; no tail, our new life set sail.
