I was such a
happy man in my garden
where the tiny folk shared some dreams
with me and my muse, my warden
laid down by my side as my bride
Mercy, mercy, mercy me,
things ain't like they used to be
There's no escape,
I can't help it babe
Mercy, mercy, mercy me,
things ain't like they used to be
My garden was my shelter
but my tiny friends got beaten down
their songs drowned in welter
and the queen of queens lost her crown
Steel and steam where once was just green
and my bride was no longer seen
I call you out, devil in disguise,
for your betrayal, you'll pay the price
Mercy, mercy, mercy me,
things ain't like they used to be
There's no escape,
I can't help it babe
Mercy, mercy, mercy me,
I'm heading towards a killing spree
