Diesel Park West - There's No Mercy on the Ground Tonight

Hey, hey, hey

Yeah, it's a real cool world you've got
There's so much to see
You've got practically anything here
Send a virgin to me
I'm not that important
You wouldn't come undone
I've got plenty to forget about
I need to burn it off

There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight
There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight

What's that guy's name
The one who showed us around?
You still have his number
You know where he's found
Look at that hat girl
With a job to do
She can't live on bread alone
Looks ambitious too

There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight
There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight

There's no sign of it
In the world tonight
What was warm has now
Froze out of sight
Even when I'm sleeping
Can't get no shelter
Like a Viet-vet
Dreaming of the Delta

There's no mercy

Just a fading starlet
With a born-again lover
Who ain't had a call for eight years
That's not from her brother
Who's messed up in London
Who went looking for a band
Just a naïve colonial
In England

Met a girl in Leicester
In industrial shoes
Seemed to know about everybody
And what to do
He never saw it coming
When she cleaned him out
What a sad picture
What a useless clown

There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight
There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight

Now it's my turn
I'm learning how to fly
This place is full of burning bridges
And I understand why

There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight

There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight
There's no mercy
There's no mercy on the ground tonight
