The DoneFors - Mercator Map Lyrics
Wandered a warehouse antique shop in AmsterdamSaw a Mercator map from a time ‘round 1610I had no money left so I put it in my coatRan out quick and got all tripped up by the cobblestonesBack in La Rochelle we stagger through the avenuesDisco bars and dancing late nights with the dudeThere’s nothing like a seaside holiday to dowse your bluesNothing like creme brule to make you fell like love is trueLike love is true* Your wishes can come trueBut only if you want them toTroubled lady in a shoe; what to do?Your wishes come and goLike all the good times that you knowTroubled lady on your ownGo give your dog a boneWe blew in to town in the chaos of a freak paradeThe rain was throwing down and we don’t got a place to staySo follow a stranger through the darkness when the powers downTo find a soft bed and a warm heartAnd all the loving soundsThe loving sounds* ChorusHoney, if I were brazen I would follow you to LourdesPay homage to Mary with all the redemption-seeking hordesBut I’ve got a lover on the other side, you knowAnd though it’s “oh! oh!” -I love him soI’ve gotta go homeI’m going homeI had a dream to drink champagne in a cemeteryPerched on a hillside in the rain above a burning city
