Mercury in Retrograde

from You're Not Doing it Right by Ton-Taun

/

lyrics

Playing on carnival games it's easy to get hurt
Well, I might be in a lot of pain,
But at least I won a t-shirt
I'm as soft and pink as the day I was born
And, if you think about the way we live
It should come as no surprise
That each and every one of us
Coughs up some blood from time to time
I'm convinced my body was built to break down

I don't need a watch to tell me how much time I've wasted
I don't need a doctor to tell me that someday I will die

Sometime you laugh, and sometime you don't
At all these things I say that sound like jokes,
But, no, they're not jokes
And I'll say that I don't see a reason
To question the age old wisdom
Of advice that's freely given on walls in men's room stalls

The planets have nothing to do with the mess I made
So don't waste your time talking about how Mercury's in retrograde

I don't hear you knocking; did you think that might be by design?
You expecting something better? Then I think you'd better get in line
