Merrie from Weird Country by Savage Mansion

When I take the well worn cobbled path,
Irish bars, tourist tat - wonder when I got so old, Mary girl?
You’ve been circumnavigating all the fine and far flung places
In my mind
Not a sign of things to come - hell no


Tell me now what’s on your mind
I won’t be all contrary
On behalf of all mankind
I’m sorry for the things I said
When I was low and terrified

I’ve been working on my water cooler talk
I don’t get to talk a lot
and I won’t sleep on the job, Mary girl
But you’re driving me to desperation now
To the other side of the world
When you tell me that you want to be free

So unrequited paramour
You’re near enough forbidden
I’ll find myself another job and keep my declarations
hidden

Are you getting married to that man?
I’ve really tried hating him
But i can’t

And do you think it’s strange
That I wear my hair the same these days?
