Margaret Atwood’s “Siren Song”?
I really need a song that contains the same theme or content as this poem. I know the theme is basically that things are not as they seem and death. I understand the poem I just can't think of a song that is like it. Please help.

You ever hear of Hook by Blues Traveler? Take a listen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdz5kCaCRFM Then look at the lyrics: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/bluestraveler/hook.html It is not the death part, but what the sirens do with their song is the same thing this song is built to do. Draw you in with the song itself. What makes it more ironic is that they are telling you what they are doing as they do it!
