Lyrics[]
My sister says I am too little
And my mother keeps on explaining
That I have to wait on my training
But I'm old enough to learn a trick or two
Every fish has school so I wish they'd teach me what to do
I'm so much more than what they say
Oh, how they'll see so perfectly all I can be
When I start to make some waves
Like swimming against a strong current
I must stay on course and be steady
Till I prove to Mom that I'm ready
With the bit of magic from my mermaid comb
I'll put up a tiny twister and show them all that I can hold
That I'm so much more than what they say
Oh, how they'll see so perfectly all I can be
When I start to make some waves
How I yearn for this time to start to turn just like the sea
There is so much inside of me
My skills are still unknown
But I have this mermaid comb
So if I make a splash right here
I could be mermaid of the year
Soon I'll be getting cheers and praise
I guarantee Cora will see, Mom will agree
When I start to make some waves
I gotta make some waves
I'm gonna make some waves
