Au, Revoir, Mr. Mercury

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Mr. Mercury, (U.S. patent No. 55453xx54), a cast iron steam machine Made the morning tea for the Admiral Gabardine Went out on an errand, but came back too late The runabout was idling behind the gate [Bridge 1] Mr. Mercury, his dials and his springs Set out for Mr. Quick (U.S. patent No. 353480723x0894) By following the oil slick [Refrain] Mr. Mercury, why did they all leave? Could it be I wonder, a strange disease? Because everybody's gone The house is empty and the silence is killing me [Verse 2] The moon was overheard And the city streets were dead They heard a soft alarm That was set by Mr. Arm (patent pending) [Refrain] Mr. Mercury, why did they all leave? Could they be, I wonder, all overseas? 'Cause everybody's gone The town is empty and the silence is killing me [Bridge 2] Follow me I will take you to the admiral He will tell us what to do Follow me I will take you to the admiral He will tell us what to do [Verse 3] You can thank Smythe and Tinker for your curious demeanor (He is a patented Marvel, He is a patented Marvel) They no longer linger, but he knows he'll be alright Are you getting existential in your clockwork differential? (He's a patented Mechanical Marvel!) [Bridge 3] Our serial numbers are etched in ours thumbs Send someone who could us a good Automaton! We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone We are, we are, we are, we are alone And so it was [Verse 4] Mr. Mercury There's not much use for us three I'll turn your On switch Off If you'll do the same for me [Refrain] 'Cause everybody's gone The world is empty and the silence is killing me
