Plato and the Mermaid

Gather here people, thy I spoke the tale Of a man like us, that loved a mermaid His name was Plato, and he was down and out But he liked the sun and he loved the crowds Then one day long ago, he heard a song And he lost his mind, he had lost his soul Then he began to walk, towards the sound And what he saw, just made him frown There was a mermaid, singing along, but how can it be? How a mermaid can sing? And as his jealousy grew, he got blind Didn't comprehend, the mermaid's sign And as he saw her waving, calling him in He pick a stone and smash her head And as the blood reach the water and as he stood with pride Plato understood that he loved her sign What have I done? What was her name? And as he stood by himself, he saw the mermaid Share this ride! Share this ride! Dare this ride! Share this ride!
