And he slept with a mermaid one fine night, and out of this union there came three: A porpoise, a porgy, and the other was me....
How does this work, exactly? I can see how I came into this (assuming I'm human), but the porpoise and the porgy? Which one represents the tail on the mermaid? And how did the sleeping together happen? I mean, uh...? It doesn't seem to me to be a union that's all that destined for success. And is three a lot of children for one mermaid, or only a few? And why did the dad raise me (and sell off my siblings)?
Yo ho ho, the winds blow free, oh for the life on the rolling sea!
But I'm not on the rolling sea. I'm in a lighthouse. On solid ground.
I just don't get it.
