No Mercy
Composer(s): The Stranglers
Performer(s): The Stranglers



Everyday you're working like a slave

Sweating buckets hoping that you get it right
Will it be as tough tomorrow
have to wait and see
Life shows no mercy

Everyday your love is getting warmer

Just look at her and I love her
did you get it right?
Will she soothe your brow with kisses only meant for thee?
She'll show no mercy
she'll show no mercy

And when you hold her close to you

Just when you're feeling good it's true
Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy

Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy

Everybody has some secret wishes

Just keep your fingers crossed
maybe they'll all come true
But don't worry if they just remain a fantasy
Life shows no mercy

Everybody seems the same all over

The search is on for love and comfort constantly
If it comes your way tomorrow count yourself lucky
Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy

And when you hold her close to you
. . .
Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy

life shows no mercy
no mercy
Life shows no mercy
no mercy
life shows no mercy
no mercy

Life shows no mercy
no mercy
life shows no mercy
no mercy

Life shows no mercy
no mercy
life shows no mercy
no mercy
