Saltwater Lies | A Bard’s Sea Hag Romance
[Instrumental intro] [INTRO – "Sunset Mirage"] Golden light across the bay, She danced where ocean foam would play. The air was sweet, the tide was low— And I thought, “By gods, she’s got that glow!” [VERSE 1 – "First Glance"] She sang upon a driftwood throne, With eyes that chilled me to the bone. Hair like seaweed, lips of red— My heart leapt up, then left my head. [BRIDGE 1 – "Bard's Delight"] Another tale for tavern lore, A midnight kiss, then maybe more! I checked my breath, I struck a chord, A wooing wink—oh thank the Lord! [CHORUS 1 – "Caught in the Net"] She looked like a dream, in moonlit disguise, Wrapped in saltwater lies! I dove in deep, I played it cool, But I was dancing with a tidepool ghoul! 🎶 [VERSE 2 – "Unsettled Waters"] Her perfume stung like fish and smoke, The moon went dim, my nose near broke. She dripped like kelp, with squishing feet— Still, I smiled like a lovesick treat. [BRIDGE 2 – "The Cracks Show"] The shimmer faded, shadows twitched— My charming grin began to glitch. Her voice grew sharp, her eyes grew wide— By the gods, I tried to hide! [CHORUS 2 – "The Sea Hag Appears] She hissed and grinned, her breath could kill, Paint peeled off my windowsill! She croaked my name with fishbone charm, Wrapped me in her seaweed arms! 🎶 [ VERSE 3 – "Desperate Seduction"] She called me “lover,” licked her teeth, A barnacle clung beneath her wreath. She dragged a tongue across my cheek— I screamed in ways I didn’t speak. [BRIDGE 3 – "Escape Plan"] “Oh look—a storm!” I lied with flair, Then tripped and bolted through the air. “Just need a lute!” I faked and fled, She laughed, “You’re mine, bard-boy,” then she sped! [FINAL CHORUS – "Run, Run, Run!] She chased me down the haunted shore, Waves crashing, crows began to soar! I ran through crabs and seagull cries— Beware the beauty with saltwater lies! 🎶 [OUTRO – "Moral of the Story"] If she’s perfect near the sea, Just squint and check—could be a she. Or she’s a hag with breath of doom... And you’ll be repainting every room. [Instrumental outro, fade out]
