You wouldn't put poison on your dinner table She oughta come with a warning label Stand back, you better stand back She'll turn your head she's the eighth wonder Take a breath boy you're going 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 stare too long Go on believe what you wanna believe She's like mercury She's bad for business, quicksilver You're gonna love it but it might k** ya So long - you're gone
I was the king heart breaker 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 stare too long Go on believe what you wanna believe She's like mercury I'm gonna pour ya a little luck It's on me, drink it up She's like mercury, burn you up so easily Slip away if you try to hold on She'll blind you if you stare too long Go on believe what you gotta believe She's like mercury
