Mercury Rising (Live)

歌詞

It was dark and it wasn't just the nighttime The crowd was silent but their eyes were on dead time The air was laden down with malice and silence A recipe with just a sprinkle of violence And then the atmosphere began to crackle and fizz You can't put your finger on whatever it is (Hey!) Who's that girl with the electric eyes? Just stand well back and watch the needle rise Opened my eyes at eleven (that's a.m.) Said a prayer, crossed my heart and said amen Black clouds, low pressure in my head But I ignored what my barometer and heart said And then the atmosphere began to buckle and chill Yeah, the mood was heavy but the air was still And with the beat turned of their was just one end And the heavens split with all that God could send And then the atmosphere began to crackle and fizz You can't put your finger on whatever it is (Hey!) Who's that girl with the electric eyes? Just stand well back and watch the needle rise
