When I was just seventeen
I ran away from home
To be with all the pretty people
To be on my own, yeah
Bright lights and trains and bedsit stains
And pavements paved with gold
And I believed in everything
That everybody told me, ooh...

Have mercy
Have mercy on me

I found myself in a lonely place
With a suitcase full of dreams
And I soon grew up to realise
What living in the doghouse means, ooh
But everyday I told myself
Good things would happen soon
'Cause I knew that I was going to be
A legend in my living room, yeah

Have mercy (come on on sister, sing)
Have mercy on me
Have mercy (come on on brother, sing)
Have mercy on me
Have mercy (come on on mother, sing)
Have mercy on me
Have mercy (come on on father, sing)
Have mercy on me

(Welcome to this perfect world)

Now everyday on a dead-end street
Is where I spend my time
The dust has been collecting
On the corners of my mind
But I've shed my tears in bitter drops
Until the thorn trees bloomed
To take the spiky fruit
To crown myself, the Queen of doom, yeah

Have mercy (come on people, sing)
Have mercy on me (mercy on the children)
Have mercy (come on people, sing)
Have mercy on me (I need to hear you sing)

Have mercy (oh they got it, girls)
Have mercy on me (sing it for yourself)
Have mercy
Have mercy on me
