Lyrics:

she's staying around or else she's goin away
it could be forever or it might be a day
or may be forever i call her a mercury girl
she's building me up then she's knocking me down
like a factory chimney in a northern town
and i am demolished i call her a mercury girl

she never sees me till the sun goes down
lives in a secret world
says: her career is in another town
life with a mercury girl

one day once when i've got some time
i try to hold her but she wouldn't be mine
she slipped through my fingers i missed the mercury girl
she came back to me with her mocking eyes
she told me she loved me but it could have been lies
and life can be up down, life with a mercury girl
life can be up down, life with a mercury girl

one day once when i've got some time
i try to hold her but she wouldn't be mine
she slipped through my fingers i missed the mercury girl
and life can be up down, life with a mercury girl
life can be up down, life with a mercury girl
