The Siren

Sitting there still As still as a statue Beautiful and perfect But harmful and deadly are they Harmful games that they play And haunting tunes they sing Lost fisherman to them they bring Singing a softly seductive song After that only her you'll long "Come to me my handsome man" She speaks so sweet, and has many a fan You have no choice but to obey For you are now her prey Lost are you now on siren's land You obey her every wish and command Flowers laced throughout her hair Forever do they stay there Lovely beautiful, and full of grace Her clothes made from the finest lace Earth air, sky and sea No one as beautiful and deadly as thee They come in swarms of many But one is just as bad as any "Come with me and share my splendor" You have never found someone so gentle or so tender But it's a trick and convincing lie But man only know's what he sees with an eye Lost are you now on sirens land You obey her every wish and command
