Man from Mercury

[Verse 1]

Two lights, flying naked in the drunken night

UFO or maybe some faulty electrical

Moonlit sheet, bearing the rays from adjacent streets

Alien, who am I to say, I'll be one any day?

[Chorus]

As I look up at the sky today

I see the man from Mercury

I think he's looking back at me

I'm an ant in a masterpiece

[Verse 2]

The stars could be a giant's candy

Resting in the licorice-coloured jar

The white moon could be a window to garden full of empty rooms

Galaxies upon galaxies

This is a stipple brush painting

And I must be the mistake in the orange tree

[Chorus]

As I look up at the sky today

I see the man from Mercury

I think he's looking back at me

[Bridge]

Neanderthal sailing on a cube earth

Making fire to a replace the sun

Like plastic in the blue surf

And swords before machine guns

The glacier falls into the river

And Jupiter towers from up high

When life starts to wither

Remember your a dot in the sky

[Outro]

As I look up at the sky today

I see the man from Mercury

I think he's looking back at me
