Go-Go's, The - Mercenary Lyrics






He's crying inside
Can't tear the hurt out
Life's rushing by
Like and old movie backdrop
The radio's blasting
Song after song
About the big romance
That went all wrong

[Chorus:]
She says:
I just wanted to make you
I never meant to break you
He says:
Have some mercy on me
Do you have to be
Such a mercenary

She's scheming inside
Can't stop the wheels turning
Been through it before
There's no profit or learning
She's not really bad
Just a gold-plated heart
So scared to be alone
It rips her apart

[Chorus]

  1. M.... R....

    I wrestled in rice and beans and won for gogos tix. Still think it was a fantastic trade off

    Love the martial drum opening. The version on their "Beyond the Valley of The Go Gos" is markedly different. Go Gos for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
