A quiet night in their home bar
the Drunken Mermaids, that's what they are
tomorrow and the rest of their lives
and their deep dives in love
They wrote a song about
The Drunken Mermaids
closed to a bar - their only world
where 'do it' is the only magical word
they ever heard
One of them has all she needs
the other six have got disease
 
So she, madame, has got things, she's
the one who wears the crown all day
and has lost her faith in tomorrow
of a dancing girl who went to high-school
to study dance - to become a ballerina
She was a fool
She understands how she fell to speed
and how she got used to LSD
She's not free but soon it's over
She's gonna be moved from a rookie's way
 
Speaking of the three of the rest
who're all diseased or that's their chest
or what's left of those silicon monsters
that now feed the worms
and the germs that
that live in them
The three of them - they form a group
the Trio Beer Cup who live to serve
'till 6 o'clock the morn
for a long time they've been around
captured by the work they're bound to do
 
The remaining three are the backbone
of the show that people come to see
they dance from dusk to the dawn
but when they stop they won't get down
they've been told so - they've got death inside
So that's the rule
Dance is the only way they can live
and how they get to see
pure people kneel to their beauty
that's the way they can feel
 
The tender of the bar worries
how, alone, will he get along
when Madame gets kicked off
when the trio lose their last breast
and the dancers fall dead
But when he knows just what to do
he doesn't have to worry no more
he'll just get a couple new girls
much better than those before
