Mercy Mercy

In a dark backroom or a crowded street
 In private life or public speech
 Keep everything away from the stifling grip
 The bureaucratic eye, the red tape brigade
 It doesn't really matter if you don't wanna stay
 We'll do very nicely without them OK and oh yeah
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Never occurred to us that we were doing any wrong
 Never occurred to us 'cause we were harming anyone
 On a crowded street or dark backroom
 In private life or public speech
 Keep everything away from the stifling grip
 The bureaucratic eye, the red tape brigade
 It doesn't really matter if you don't wanna stay
 We'll do very nicely without them OK and oh yeah
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Never occurred to 'cause we were harming anyone
 Never occurred to us that we were doing any wrong
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Mercy mercy mercy on me
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Have mercy mercy on me
 Mercy mercy mercy on me
