Nick Cave and The Bad Seed - Mercy слова песни
I stood in the waterIn the middle month of winterMy camel skin was tortureI was in a state of natureThe wind, sir, it was wickedI was so aloneJust as I predictedMy followers were gone And I cried `Mercy`Have mercy upon meAnd I got down on my knees Thrown into a dungeonBread and water was my portionFaith - my only weaponTo rest the devil`s legionThe speak-hole would slide openA viper`s voice would pleadThick with innuendoSyphilis and Greed And she cried `Mercy`Have mercy upon meAnd I told her to get down on her knees In a garden full of rosesMy hands, tied behind meMy cousin was working miraclesI wondered if he`d find meThe moon was turned toward meLike a platter made of goldMy death, it almost bored meSo often was it told And I cried `Mercy`I cried mercy on meCryind `Mercy`Have mercy on me
