Lyrics
Now I fill a space in the natural world
But I don’t have a car, I don’t have a lover
It’s tough to have faith in the natural world
When all I want is a hideaway for cover
Once I was a mermaid in the deep and tranquil sea
And now I have a name it’s kind of like a number
Sometimes it’s "Baby", other times it’s “Hey you”
I work to stand straight in the natural world
Work to be noticed, work to be invisible
Once I was a mermaid in the deep and tranquil sea
Once I was a mermaid and I was merely floating
But now I need a jet plane, now I need my brothers
Now I need a potion, now I need a lover
Now I need a car, I need a big car so I can sail away
Oh, I can’t get used to this, I can’t get used to this
Now I fight for space in the natural world
Walking on Eighth, heading out of downtown
Oh I need a car, I need a big car
Take me to the ocean leave my clothes and I would sail away
Now I need a jet plane, now I need my brothers
Now I need a potion, now I need a lover
Now I need a car, I need a big car so I can sail away
Once I was a Mermaid in the deep and tranquil sea
