Mitzy was a mermaid
who lived in the sea
She always dreamed
of walking on two feet
Day dreaming to
her hearts content
Many days and
evenings spent
Tail flopping
here and there
Sitting on a rock
without a care
Suddenly a splash
and who appeared
But a fairy fish
with a shinny red beard
Mitzy was astonished
couldn't believe
A shinny fairy fish
is talking too me
My name is Earl
and I will grant your wish
For you Mitzy
a beautiful mermaid fish
With fairy dust
and some words from a spell
Mitzy's legs
began to swell
Mitzy looked down
with dismay
Now I can't
swim I'm afraid
Be careful what
you wish for
It may come true
Don't make any wish
before thinking it though
Mitzy still sits
atop a rock in
the middle of the sea
But her parents visit
and feed her regularly
