Summary

by Jerome Kern The Siren's Song (1917)

Now long years have passed away, Sirens are a myth they say, But you still find them none the less, singing today in modern dress Just the same they set their snare, sweetly smiling, false and fair, Turn a deaf ear when you are near, or upon the reef you'll come to grief.
