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
