Panic! At The Disco – Mercenary lyrics
Just a dime store poet
Keeping pace, talking his face blue
Two dollar store tramps
To get a glance, a new chance at you
Walk past the dance floor,
That’s always been a dear friend of mine
Cut coils and concubines,
Dancing in four-four time
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said”
So he replies, “and how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
In love I’ve always been a mercenary,
But I never leave my post when the cash runs out
I wanna make you quiver,
Make your backbone shiver
Hey kid- take the stage and deliver
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral...
“How does it feel to stand on the very stones
That ran with your parent’s blood?
Do you feel sad?
Full of rage?
Or does that outfit help bury your feelings?
Hiding your true self
You’re a truly extraordinary specimen; I look forward to breaking you”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said.”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said.”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
Keeping pace, talking his face blue
Two dollar store tramps
To get a glance, a new chance at you
Walk past the dance floor,
That’s always been a dear friend of mine
Cut coils and concubines,
Dancing in four-four time
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said”
So he replies, “and how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
In love I’ve always been a mercenary,
But I never leave my post when the cash runs out
I wanna make you quiver,
Make your backbone shiver
Hey kid- take the stage and deliver
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral...
“How does it feel to stand on the very stones
That ran with your parent’s blood?
Do you feel sad?
Full of rage?
Or does that outfit help bury your feelings?
Hiding your true self
You’re a truly extraordinary specimen; I look forward to breaking you”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said.”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
“Hey mister” the bell man says,
“I can only recall and spend some time I said.”
So he replies, “And how do you manage?”
I dodge the blast and apologize for collateral damage
