Lyric : Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy on me
By Cold War Kids

Get'n closer everyday
Getting closer everyday
Lord have mercy on me
talkin' about two different things
television and life magazine
Lord have mercy on me
Whohoo
Lord have mercy on me

Got this idea, in my head, and I can't get it out
cause all your money, and all your culture, I could surely live without
pile the treasures up on earth
and what you keep and what you take
a property, a vanity, even knowledge for knowledge's sake

Lord have mercy on me
talkin' about two different things
television and life magazine
Lord have mercy on me!
OH!
Lord have mercy on me!

Don't wanna see no psychoanalyst
experienced in assisting to adjust
European travel,
the h-bomb,
the presidential elections
front page of the New York times
the front page of the New York times

Lord have mercy on me
talkin' about two different things
television and life magazine
Lord have mercy on me!
OH!
Lord have mercy on me!

Quit your gripping shine your shoes
tell your little secrets for your booze
don't make no difference who's watching from the stands
fat lady always claps her hands

Lord have mercy on me
you say it even if you're robbing from the poor
lord have mercy on me
I believe the words can change the heart
the words can change the heart
the words can change the Heart

have mercy on me
oh Oh! Have mercy on me!
talk'n bout two different things
television, yeah, and life magazine
lord have mercy on me
oh, god! lord have mercy on me
yeah, getting closer every day
getting closer every day!
getting closer, yeah.
