Mercenary Lyrics by The Dorons

2022

[Verse]
Mercenary says he comes in cold -
From the looks of him, he's not kidding
Says: "The money ain't all that good, you know
But I gotta do my own bidding."
[Verse]
Mercenary runs 'round looking for wars -
He fights a few of his own invention
Says: "It's gonna get worse - I better quench my thirst
I don't think I'll be needing my pension."
[Pre-Chorus]
Ready, aim, fire -
Got a gunner here for hire
Singing "hup two three four, hup two three four."
[Chorus]
Only at peace when he's at war
Only at peace when he's at war
[Verse]
Mercenary fits the mission mold -
He's got a lot of land to capture
And like Cochise, Custer, and Gеronimo
He got caught up in the rapture
[Verse]
Mеrcenary checks his heart for holes -
He finds a few and laughs with pleasure
But the war is on, so he's off and gone
With a gun, his greatest treasure
[Pre-Chorus]
Ready, aim, fire -
Got a gunner here for hire
Singing "hup two three four, hup two three four."
[Chorus]
Only at peace when he's at war
Only at peace when he's at war
[Bridge]
Count him in, count me out
Count him in, count me out
[Pre-Chorus]
Ready, aim, fire -
Got a gunner here for hire
Singing "hup two three four, hup two three four."
[Chorus]
Only at peace when he's at war
Only at peace when he's at war
[Bridge]
Count him in, count me out
Count him in, count me out
[Chorus]
Only at peace when he's at war
Only at peace when he's at war
[Bridge]
Count him in, count me out
Count him in, count me out
