MERCY SLEEP
(Gallagher, Galeazzi, Eadie) Universal

so I'm king

I'm doing my king thing

'til dark from dawn

suffering fool and pawn

but the night is mine

with my queen and my wine

and I can't wait 'til day is over

leave me alone, I'm not at home
I need my mercy sleep

I can't get to the phone

leave it after the tone

I need my mercy sleep

so much sunshine
lost on wasting time

spending it like water

spending it in waves

but that's alright

'cause only god saves

(french)

Why don't you all bugger off

I'm quite happy here in the bath with my crown lager

go sell your you-beaut whizz-bang mobile phone to someone else

this king is happy doing his king thing

thank you very much


(end french)

chorus

you see, I'm safe from harm
deep in morpheus' arms

I need my mercy sleep

so leave me alone, I'm not at home

I need my mercy sleep
