Mercury (12" Version)

My mercury's in retrograde
My mercury's in retrograde
Mer-mer-mercury's in retrograde
My mercury's in retrograde

Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury-mer-mer-mercury's in
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)

This is not the time, the time to start a new love
This is not the time, the time to sign a lease
Try not to worry about what's forgotten
Try not to worry about what's being missed
Scars on my shins, scars on my knuckles
Today I woke up in the basketball court
John Joe's in Sydney, and he ain't returning
I'm sitting in Soho trying to stay drunk

(Eh, eh, eh) in any part of the world
(Eh, eh, eh) from Silver Lake to Williamsburg
(Eh, eh, eh) you can pick another stranger
(Eh, eh, eh) and fall in love

Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in retrograde
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)

This is not the time, the time to start a new love
This is not the time, the time to sign a lease
Try not to worry about what's forgotten
Try not to worry about what's being missed
Bleeding gums and veins protruding
You try to hate all of your clothes
The mayor's in L.A., and she ain't returning
I'm sleeping with people I don't even like

(Eh, eh, eh) in any part of the world
(Eh, eh, eh) from Silver Lake to Williamsburg
(Eh, eh, eh) you can pick another stranger
(Eh, eh, eh) and fall in love

Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in retrograde
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in retrograde
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)

When I saw you last night
I wanted to say
Run away with me
Away from the cynics
That this could be the start of
Something truly real
But all that I could say was hey
Was hey, was hey, was hey

Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in retrograde
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in retrograde
Mercury-mercur-mercury's in
Mercury's in (retrograde)
My mercury's in retrograde
My mercury's in retrograde
Mer-mer-mercury's in retrograde
Mercury's in (retrograde)
