Mercury is rising, is it so surprising? He doesn't sweat the small stuff cause he's got it figured out The concierge was right to refuse him right of passage Sirens ringing out, but there isn't any reason for Alarm! Alarm! As he takes you by the arm You recall the many times this simple gesture led to harm Recoil not as smooth as the amateur's ascension Living with a memory that always calls attention To itself, and you, are powerless to stop The dinner ends, and yet again, you served just as a prop The time is now, tomorrow too, you'll never hear an "I love you" That isn't just a courtesy or friend in ecstasy Persistence isn't perseverance ain't it plain to see? If you check the letters there's a 'v' swapped for a 't' Try again, another day, hoping it'll be okay Cry again, I'll never say or tell you it'll be okay Eyes, all dance around and land on other girls Lights, meant to excite, withhold their fractal mirth from you In a city with a population straining at the millions How is a companion hard to find among civilians? You socialize, and harmonize with conversations built to lead You to somebody's bed or mattress, until reason supersedes The urge, the pull, as they try to draw you near You're looking for a lifetime but they can't stomach a year The miracles are so enticing, angel cake with poison icing Cherries dipped in cyanide, the witty banter dead inside Eyes, all dance around and land on other girls Lights, meant to excite, withhold their fractal mirth from you Lies, fall from the lips that long tell the truth Sounds, meant to entice, drown and muffle you No luck on the downtown masquerade No luck on the downtown masquerade, not today No luck on the downtown masquerade No luck on the downtown masquerade
