Legend In My Living Room

When I was just seventeen

I ran away from home

To be with all the pretty people

To be on my own, yeah

Bright lights and trains and bedsit stains

And pavements paved with gold

And I believed in everything

That everybody told me...

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

I found myself in a lonely place

With a suitcase full of dreams

And I soon grew up to realize

What living in the doghouse means, ooh

But everyday I told myself

Good things would happen soon

'Cause I knew that I was going to be

A legend in my living room, yeah

Have mercy (common on sister, sing)

Have mercy on me

Have mercy (common on brother, sing)

Have mercy on me

Have mercy (common on mother, sing)

Have mercy on me

Have mercy (common on father, sing)

Have mercy on me

(Welcome to this perfect world)

Now everyday, on a dead-end street

Is where I spend my time

The dust has been collecting

On the corners of my mind

But I shed my tears in bitter drops

Until the thorn trees bloomed

To take the spiky fruit

To crown myself the queen of doom, yeah

Have mercy (common people sing)

Have mercy on me (mercy on the children)

Have mercy (common people sing)

Have mercy on me (I need to hear you sing)

Have mercy (oh they got it girls)

Have mercy on me

Have mercy (sing it for yourself)

Have mercy on me
