Lyrics

Mercury is in retrograde
I'm looking at a full moon
They say disaster is imminent
I say it can't come too soon

You see, my love life's a shambles
My job is nothing but stress
I'm relieved to have something to blame
Something to blame for this mess

Mercury is in retrograde
All these planets and stars
Exert gravity on the gravity of the situation
My inclination is to address this with guitars

Mercury is in retrograde
I feel it under my skin
Lord knows it's responsible
For the sad shape I'm in

A line of creditors trails me
They brighten as I decay
But I can't change direction or stop this decline
I'm dragged every step of the way

Mercury is in retrograde
I'm looking at a full moon
They say disaster is imminent
I say it can't come too soon
