At the Hamburg Zoo, there in Arctic Cove
A living breathing mermaid swims alone
Forced to sing Adele, “Rolling in the Deep”
Cries to herself when you sleep

Hiding just inside a cave
She waits until she gets the wave
Then Ariel takes it away
Ariel is not her name
But as Lisa, she don’t get paid
So Ariel take it away
Ariel, sing one today

La lala lala lala la, la lala lala lala la
La lala lala lala la, la lala lala lala la

They try to make her mate with a manatee
She cannot relate, manatees are ugly
(La lala lala lala la, la lala lala lala la)
They give her old fish scraps, that's not what she eats
It’s like giving a man man meat
Hiding just inside a cave
She waits until she gets the wave
Then Ariel takes it away
Ariel is not her name
But as Lisa, she don’t get paid
So Ariel take it away
Ariel, sing one today

La lala lala lala la, la lala lala lala la
La lala lala lala la, la lala lala lala la

Belting out Disney classics on top of a rock
On Saturdays, it’s cabaret favorites at 2 and 4 o’ clock

The zoo set up a cam, come catch a sneak peak
Put on Instagram, hashtag freak
She’s not an animal, or is she?
That’s the subject of her documentary
