mercy mercy (live) - the 77s lyrics
[verse 1]
i was wallowing
in a pit of snakes
they come crawling
up around my legs
now, i despise them
but i know
if they hypnotize me
down, down i go
[chorus 1]
i say, lord
have mercy on me
i say, lord
have mercy, please
[verse 2]
love to fly
in a purple haze
believe lies
just to save face
but when i crash
on solid ground
then i go splat
up comes down
[chorus 2]
then i say, lord
(hey, mercy)
have mercy on me
(hey, mercy)
i say, lord
(hey, mercy)
have mercy, please
(hey, mercy)
complete
(mercy, mercy)
forgiving
(mercy, mercy)
chastening
(mercy, mercy)
embracing
(mercy, mercy)
well
rock it
[spoken word interruption]
at this point, turn your c-ssette over to side two.
[verse 3]
love when she sings
when she stings
but if i bow
down to her notes
when death comes ’round
that’s all she wrote
[chorus 2]
i say, lord
(hey, mercy)
have mercy on me
(hey, mercy)
i say, lord
(hey, mercy)
have m-m-m-m-m, hey, hey
(hey, mercy)
complete
(mercy, mercy)

(mercy, mercy)
chastening
(mercy, mercy)
embracing
