lyrics
Jacob ploughed the whale road
His first love was the angry sea
Casting his nets in the mounting swell
Until he met a mermaid called Cecily
CHORUS
She was a mermaid, but the other way round
Half woman, half fish, but in reverse
Don't judge another by the love that they found
Love being blind can be a curse
Legs of a lady
Body of a cod
Eyes of a haddock
Ankles of a god
Jacob and the irregular mermaid
Jacob hit a storm surge
Mast broken and far from port
A wave sucked him clean off the boat
But he was saved by a mermaid of a different sort
CHORUS
Jacob tried to woo her
But no flowers in oceans can be found
So he reeled her in with mealworms
And a tiny little castle she could swim around
CHORUS
Jacob married Cecily
To each other their lives devote
Her fins had no fingers so there was no ring
He just laid a pearl necklace around her throat
CHORUS
Jacob lost his Cecily
After seven years she filed for divorce
She fell for a topsy-turvy centaur
With the legs of a human and the torso of a horse
CHORUS
