The Harlot Queens - Siren's Call

Unhappily married ladies, from all around the town
Have a little secret, that takes away their frowns
Your husband is a beast, a bastard, a pain in your rear
Go down to the seashore, to see if a siren's near
Go down to the seashore, to see if a siren's near

A siren can relieve you of your burden, yes it's true
No man can resist her song that echoes from the blue
If your husband is out all night, or spends all of your dough
Suggest a picnic at the beach, and down the shore you go
Suggest a picnic at the beach, and down the shore you go

Some husbands bring you flowers, others bring you thorns
Some snuggle tight while you sleep, others stay out til' the dawn
If you find yourself wed to a sinner, not a saint
Rely on your local siren, to rid you of your mate
Rely on your local siren, to rid you of your mate

When a siren calls you to the deep, her song you must obey
Her enchanting smile and wicked teeth may cause you to dismay
But if you marry too quick, and he's a prick, and so you have the grounds
It's the quickest way for any wife to lose 200 pounds
It's the quickest way for any wife to lose 200 pounds

Men they dream of mermaids, despite their fishy tails
If you don't meet their standards, those scoundrels set their sails
I say to all the wives ashore, don't let your poor hearts break
That mermaid might be cute on top, but she slithers like a snake
That mermaid might be cute on top, but she slithers like a snake

Unhappily married ladies, from all around the town
Have a little secret, that takes away their frowns
Your husband is a beast, a bastard, a pain in your rear
Go down to the seashore, to see if a siren's near
Go down to the seashore, to see if a siren's near
