She's a legal secretary
Overworked and undepaid
She tries to follow love
But she's too afraid

She has to work late
Just to make ends meet
She's run off her feet
In this jungle of concrete

And it's hard, to keep forbidden love alive
It's hard, When your working nine to five
It's hard, When you just dont know where to start
It's hard to share your heart
When your living worlds apart

He is Posiedon
The King of The Sea
His underwater empire
Hidden from humanity

He has to work late
Got lay duties to perform
To keep the sea at stall
He's wet and he's forlorn
And it's hard, to keep forbidden love alive
It's hard, When the lobsters give you jive
It's hard, When your leagues beneath the sea
It's hard for love to be
When your love's a secretary

Well they can't go back to his place
Because she can't breathe under water
They can't go back to that hotel
He stuck a trident through a porter

Well she doesn't like the way
That he looks at other ladies
And he can't stand the fact that she
Don't get on with his brother Hades

Well it's all so tough for a secretary
To love Posiedon, King of the Sea
Cos' she's saving up for a college degree
And he is Posiedon, King of the Sea
But she can't control how her emotions behave
And he is Posiedon, Lord of the Waves
Well this tainted love, Yeah it makes her breathe
And he is Posiedon, God of the Deep

And it's hard, to keep forbidden love alive
It's hard, something something scuba dive
It's hard, It's hard to say goodbye
And let this drowned love die
Than leave you high and dry
With salt water in your eye
Well it's hard, no matter what you wish
It's hard, For a woman and a fish
It's hard, It's hard to say goodbye
Salt water in you eye
Goodbye
