Weeki Wacky
Going on vacation
down to Spring Hill, Florida,
decided to take in some attractions,
and with Weeki "Wacky" practically
right up the road,
drove there to do some investigating,
hearing that they have live mermaids
is something I've never seen,
so took it upon myself to check it out,
because they say seeing is believing,
got there just in time to take
in the next mermaid show,
and as I counted them swimming
around they turned out to be four,
three of them looking like a young Ariel,
the fourth one I did a double take
because she looked so familiar,
she looked older and had flaming red hair
just like the others,
but her costume was like the color
hot pink and much more gaudier,
finally getting closer to the mermaid tank
I realized who it was and started to giggle,
because believe it or not,
and I guess she never retired her mermaid costume,
it was none other than Bette Midler!
