Lyrics
Mary Mary (You’ve Got Nerve)
Mary, Mary, you know the route
Mary, Mary, you know the way down and out
There’s only one way to say, please please please
Mary, Mary, I’m in a state of need
We turned up later with our red lights flashing
(Comes out in the wash, comes out in the end)
(Comes out in the mouths of our babes and friends)
And our steam valves squealing and our drumheads bashing
(Comes out in the off, comes out in the sheets)
(Comes off the top of your lucky four leaf)
Mary, Mary, you’ve got nerve, yea, you’ve got nerve
So past your sold-by date, but you’re sold cold and ready to serve
Now, there’s only one way to say please please please
Only one way back to back bay I want to hear you say
Remember me
We turned up later with our red lights flashing
(Comes out in the wash, comes out in the end)
(Comes out in the mouths of our babes and friends)
And our steam valves squealing and our drumheads bashing
(Comes out in the off, comes out in the sheets)
(Comes off the top of your lucky four leaf)
Mary, Mary, you know the track
Your sins are not just insinuated, you’re a full-on frontal attack
Mary, Mary, you’ve got nerve, yea, you’ve got nerve
Mary, Mary, you’ve got nerve, yea, you’ve got nerve
Mary, Mary, you’ve got nerve, yea, you’ve got nerve
Mary, Mary, you’ve got nerve, yea, you’ve got nerve
