[verse 1]
white-faced phantoms in a foggy rain
minnows in the pool, the way they slip away
and i go fumbling, go run again to repossess
the story of my youth
the story of my electric past

[pre-chorus 1]
are we running after flickering sparks, oh?
are we grappling for diamonds in the dark, oh?
the way we chase that mercury
the way we chase that mercury

[verse 2]
loud like lions and as slick as wolves
desperately we hunt the other animals
but in the end, if all we are is dogs out back, chasing cars
then pray that we don’t get the things we want

[pre-chorus 2]
are we running after flickering sparks, oh?
are we grappling for diamonds in the dark, oh?
the way we chase that mercury
the way we chase that mercury, oh

[chorus]
another pound of flesh
offer it up to the gods of american success
but no matter what you are
you’re only second best
and it’s all that you can ever hope to be
the way you chase that mercury, oh

[verse 3]
fragile frames fumble in the mystery
afraid to be exposed while we pretend to be
something more than what we are
fools in love with punch drunk hearts
mystified by everything we see

[pre-chorus 3]
are we running after flickering sparks, oh?
are we grappling for diamonds in the dark, oh?
the way we chase that mercury
the way we chase that mercury, oh
oh, the way we chase that mercury
the way we chase that mercury, oh

[chorus]
another pound of flesh
offer it up to the gods of american success
but no matter who you are
you’re only second best
and it’s all that you can ever hope to be
the way you chase that mercury, oh
the way you chase that mercury

[instrumental]

[bridge]
there must be more to this
our desperate wandering
how do we put to rest
all of our discontent
beneath the shadows of
all that we think we want
is there a light we can’t see?

there must be more to this
our desperate wandering
how do we put to rest
all of our discontent
beneath the shadows of
all that we think we want
is there a light we can’t see?

the way you chase that mercury
