Mermaids Lyrics - Push The Sky Away - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

She was a catch 

And we were a match 

I was the match 

That would fire up her snatch 

There was a catch 

I was no match 

I was fired from her crotch 

Now I sit around and watch 

The mermaids sun themselves out on the rocks 

They are beyond our touch 

I watch and watch 

Wave at me 

They wave at me 

They wave and slip 

Back into the sea

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

All the ones who come 

All the ones who go 

Down to the water 

And all the ones who come 

And all the ones who go 

Down to the sea 

I believe in God 

I believe in mermaids too 

I believe in seventy-two virgins 

On a chain, why not, why not 

I believe in the rapture 

For I've seen your face 

On the floor of the ocean 

At the bottom of the rain 

I do driver alertness course 

I do husband alertness course 

I do mermaid alertness course 

Watch them out on the rocks 

Wave at me 

Wave at me 

They wave and slip 

Back into the sea 

All the ones who come 

All the ones who go 

Down to the water 

All the ones who come 

And all the ones who go 

Down to the sea 

For all the ones who come 

And all the ones who go 

Down to the water 

All the ones who come 

And all the ones who go 

Down to the sea
