lyrics

Mercury in Retrograde

It travels round the sun
Six times to our one
What no one else can see
Is plain as day to me

They say its surface is hot as hell
Unwitting servants to its spell
You can't flee Mercury in retrograde

You can't flee Mercury
You can't flee Mercury
You can't flee Mercury

It's ten times worse than a full moon
You're not even safe in your bedroom
Controls more than the rising tides
There's nowhere to hide
There's nowhere to hide

The gods must be against me
My shortwave doesn't work
Lost signal, no connection
Nothing goes right

Imbalance in the system
Rogue planet off its track
All circuits overloaded
Nothing goes right

Damn that planet
Damn that star
Force of disruption from afar
You can't flee Mercury
You can't flee Mercury

Free from Mercury
Free from Mercury

Lyrics by Chuck Cote, Daniel Cote, William Cote
