Mercy Mercy
by 77s

Album: Eighty Eight

I was wallowing
In a pit of snakes
They come crawling
Up around my legs
Now I despise them
But I know
If they hypnotise me
Down, down I go


Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy


Love to fly
In a purple haze
Believe lies
Just to stay faced
But when I crash
On solid ground
Then I go splat!
And my up comes down


Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy
Complete...
Forgiving...
Chastening...
Embracing...


Love to go far
On my guitar
Love when she sings
Love when she stings
But if I bow
Down to her notes
When death comes 'round
That's all she wrote


Then I say Lord
Have mercy on me
I say Lord
Have mercy
Complete...
Forgiving...
Chastening...
Embracing...
Unearned...
Undeserved...
A total work


Mercy! (x 7)
