Текст песни Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Mermaids

She was a catch We were a match
I was the match That would fire up her snatch
But there was a catch I was no match
I was fired from her crotch Now I'll sit around and watch
The mermaids sun themselves Out on the rocks
They are beyond our touch I watch and watch
Them wave at me, They 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 
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
Down to the sea

I believe in God I believe in mermaids too
I believe in 72 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 I watch them out on the rocks
They wave at me,they 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 
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
Down to the sea

All the ones who come All the ones who go
Down to the water 
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
Down to the sea
