Steve Lacy - Mercury lyrics

(Ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)

Gemini
I'm a myth and I'm a legend
Whom never wins
And might not ever play again
Keep falling in (Keep falling in, yeah)
Love so fast and back out again
Speeding
When I should ease in

Oh, I know myself, my sins
Dug my pit, then I fell in
Pulled the trigger, killed us both
Lesson learned but truth gets old

Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Little of pleasure, little depression
(Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
How can I tell if? How can I measure?
(Ooh, ah)
If I don't know (Ooh, ah)

Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba (Woah)
Ba ba ba (Ah)

I lookеd up at the ceiling as I
Draft my "I'm so sorry" text
Don't rеgret the choice I chose but
Do regret the mess I made
I see you hurt
I wish I could just hold you tight and close
Don't need long, just wanna say
"I love you and miss you most"

Oh, I know myself, my skin
Rolling stones don't crawl back in
Daddy's faults fell down on me
Break that curse for sweet relief

Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Little of pleasure, little depression
(Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
How can I tell if? How can I measure?
(Ooh, ah)
If I don't know (Ooh, ah)

Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)

Mercury running amuck in my mind
Can't tell if I'm winning or falling behind
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Venus in retrograde got me in bed
And thinkin' 'bout all of the
Shit that I said
Ba ba ba ba, ba, ba ba ba ba
(Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Ba ba ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Gemini scope give me depth 'til I'm dead
But I can't seem to get the
Fuck out of my head
Well, fuck it
I'll just cop a Porsche instead
I do as I please and you see where it lead
Guess somethin' bad ain't 'bout
To happen to me
You think I'm two-faced
I can name twenty-three

My layers, all these sides
Could you stick by for the ride?
It's a thrill
And I don't even know how to feel
It might be too real
Might be too
Real, might be too real, real
I said, "Might be too"
Might, I said, "Might be too real, real"
I said, "Might be too real"

Excuse me if I lied
I forgot I said that
Can you forgive my tongue?
I'll show you where my head at
I don't think I'm the one
But I could be your girlfriend
'Til retrograde is done
