Lyrics
RULED BY MERCURY
Honey I must be goin?, headin off once again.
Though you know that I?ll return, like you know I don?t when.
There?s rules explainin? gravity. Like the moon that rules the tides of the sea oh. A gypsy woman once said to me she said, son you?re ruled by Mercury.
Son you?re ruled by Mercury.
Seems I?ve been movin? all my life never sittin? still for too long a while.
As a boy I couldn?t stop rockin? now as an adult I walk while I?m talkin?.
Back in high school I?d be drummin? on my desk, poor teacher askin? me just to give it a rest. Oh, a gypsy woman once said to me she said, son you?re ruled by Mercury. Son you?re ruled by Mercury.
Oh it?s just my inclination. It keeps me on the go, occasional inspiration from a place I?ll never know. Or could it simply be, that in this galaxy, there?s a star watchin? over me, and that I,..I am ruled by Mercury
Maybe God had a plan in his wisdom, makin? universal characters he could categorize, and everytime he cast his thought across the stars he?d recollect the traits from the names he?s memorized. Some types he made tough as Mars, beautiful like Venus the stars of all stars while, some just travelled on endlessly, they were ruled by Mercury, like that gypsy woman since said to me she said,sone you?re ruled by Mercury she said sone you?re ruled by Mercury
Oh it?s just my inclination. It keeps me on the go, occasional inspiration from a place I?ll never know. Or could it simply be, that in this galaxy, there?s a star watchin? over me, and that I,..I am ruled by Mercury
Honey I must be goin?, headin off once again.
Though you know that I?ll return, like you know I don?t when.
There?s rules explainin? gravity. Like the moon that rules the tides of the sea oh. A gypsy woman once said to me she said, son you?re ruled by Mercury.
son you?re ruled by Mercury. I don?t why, might be my, destiny but, son you?re ruled by Mercury she said son you?re ruled by Mercury.
