You wouldn't put poison on your dinner table
She ought to come with a warning label
Stand back, better stand back
She'll turn your head, she's the eighth wonder
Take a breath, boy, you're goin' under
Like that, just like that
She's like mercury, she'll burn you up so easily
Slip away if you try to hold on
She'll blind you if you stay too long
So only live what you wanna believe, boy
She's like mercury, that's right
She's bad for business, a quick silver
You're gonna love her, but it might kill you so long
Yeah, you're gone
I was the king, heartbreaker
I wasn't strong enough to take her on
Couldn't take her on
She's like mercury, she'll burn you up so easily
Slip away if you try to hold on
She'll blind you if you stay too long
So only live what you wanna believe, boy
She's like mercury, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna pour you a little light
Drink it up
She's like mercury, she'll burn you up so easily
Slip away if you try to hold on
She'll blind you if you stay too long
So only live what you gotta believe, boy
She's like mercury, she's like mercury, oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
