Au Revoir, Mr. Mercury
guitar chords lyrics
Mr. Mercury, (U.S. patent No. 55453xx54), a cast iron steam machine,
Made the morning tea for the Admiral Gabardine
Went out on an errand, but came back too late
The runabout was idling behind the gate
Mr. Mercury, his dials and his springs
Set out for Mr. Quick (U.S. patent No. 353480723x0894)
By following the oil slick
Mr. Mercury, why did they all leave?
Could it be I wonder, a strange disease?
Because everybody's gone
The house is empty and the silence is killing me
The was overheard
And the city streets were dead
They heard a soft alarm
That was set by Mr. Arm (patent pending)
And the city streets were dead
They heard a soft alarm
That was set by Mr. Arm (patent pending)
Mr. Mercury, why did they all leave?
Could they be, I wonder, all overseas?
'Cause everybody's gone
The town is empty and the silence is killing me
"Follow me.
I will take you to the admiral.
He will tell us what to do."
You can tank Smythe and Tinker for your curious demeanor.
(He is a patented Marvel, He is a patented Marvel)
They no longer linger, but he knows he'll be alright
Are you getting existential in your clockwork differential?
(He's a patented Mechanical Marvel!)
Our serial numbers are etched in ours thumbs.
Send someone who could us a good Automaton!
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
We are, we are, we are, we are alone
And so it was.
Mr. Mercury
There's not much use for us three
I'll turn your On switch Off
If you'll do the same for me
'Cause everybody's gone
The world is empty and the silence is killing me.
