A brothel of sorts

Under the sea lies a brothel of sorts
Where favours from Sirens and Mermaids are bought
By Dolphins and Porpoise who hide from their lives
By straying a moment away from their wives,
The customers barter the cost with the whores
One seashell, two and a fin full of spores
An octopus shudders and lets go his ink
While the shark goes upstairs with a nod and a wink,
And all of the time in a room at the rear
Sits the pimp-fish just grinning from tail-fin to ear
As he counts all the seashells and coral and pearls
That are earned by his Mermaids and Sirens and Girls,
Fifteen rooms in the brothel - a dungeon as well
And if they could talk oh what tales they would tell
They would speak of old Jonah who once wandered in
To be swallowed by Whales who were working within,
They'd tell you of Neptune who's trident was sunk
Into many a Mermaid when he came in drunk,
They'd talk of dear Nero who'd oft' moor his craft
At the side of the brothel whilst fixing his shaft
And of Blackbeard the pirate who always would spend
Every Monday in bed with a young Mermaid friend,
The brothel is known from the North Pole to South
It's fame spread by seamen and by word of mouth
All in the oceans have heard of it's name
This brothel, this whorehouse this place of the game
Yet up on the land where the rest of us are
It's just an aquatic, seabound shangri-la
For if it was known that this place did exist
The humans would wreck it each time they got pissed
So though we have seen it we must never talk
Of this place 'neath the ocean where fish pop their corks
We must keep it a secret between you and I
Like tales of our childhood and pie-in-the-sky,
Let's head for our home now and leave this behind
The Dolphins and Porpoise and whores of all kinds
Lets leave them in peace in this brothel of sorts
Where favours from Sirens and Mermaids are bought
While all of the time in a room at the rear
Sits the pimp-fish just grinning from tail-fin to ear
As he adds up the pears and the coral and spores
That are earned by his legendary, talented whores.
