she's staying around or else she's goin away it could be forever or it might be a day or may be forever i call her a mercury girl she's building me up & then she's knocking me down like a factory chimney in a northern town and i am demolished i call her a mercury girl she never sees me till the sun goes down lives in a secret world says: her career is in another town life with a mercury girl one day once when i've got some time i try to hold her but she wouldn't be mine she slipped through my fingers & i missed the mercury girl she came back to me with her mocking eyes she told me she loved me but it could have been lies and life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl one day once when i've got some time i try to hold her but she wouldn't be mine she slipped through my fingers & i missed the mercury girl and life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl life can be up & down, life with a mercury girl
