[Intro]

*spacey soundscape*

*backwards guitar*

*garbled radio broadcasts*

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]

Hang up and drive it down

Right thru the monster's ribcage

Sticks in the ground where

The partisan lines have been laid

Cockpit or not it's a swell of a beautiful stage

[Verse 2]

An eye on the polls while

The barber takes care of his chin

They seem to be rising but

Really just sit there and spin

Hogwash or not it's a hell of beautiful grin

[Chorus]

A world without edges

Horizon unseen

Spread out on the surface

Your mercury dream

[Verse 3]

The look that she gave made it

Difficult for him to stand

Not so much seductive as

Badly in need of a man

Now we all know her face

Like her face knows the back of his hand

[Chorus]

A world without edges

Horizon unseen

Spread out on the surface

Your mercury dream

[Chorus]

A world without urges

Inhaling obscene

Spread out on the surface

Your mercury dream

Your mercury dream

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

The euphemisms are the proof

That he's saving the day

Distinguished and silver

Replacing decrepit and gray

As he rolled up the limosine

Window was rumored to say

[Bridge]

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah, Delilah

Delilah, Delilah

Delilah, Delilah

Delilah, Delilah, Ohh

Delilah, Delilah

Delilah, Delilah, Ohh

[Chorus]

A world without edges

Horizon unseen

Spread out on the surface

Your mercury dream

Your mercury dream

[Outro]

Hang up and drive

Hang up and drive

Hang up and drive

Hang up and drive it

Hang up and drive

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah

Nice try Delilah
