At The Mercy lyrics

Artist/Band: 
Paul McCartney

At the mercy, at the mercy
At the mercy of a busy road,
Who can handle such a heavy load?

At the mercy, At the mercy
At the mercy of a busy day,
We can think of nothing more to say

If you show me love, I won't refuse
I know you'd never make me choose
Between the love I've got and the love I'd lose

Sometimes I'd rather run and hide,
Then stay and face the fear inside

At the mercy, at the mercy
At the mercy of a busy day,
Who can bear to turn their head away?

At the mercy, at the mercy
At the mercy of a busy road
We can watch the universe explode

If you take me up, I won't say no
I guess you'd rather see me grow
Into a better man than the one you know

Sometimes my head is hanging low
It's time to get on with the show

At the mercy, at the mercy
At the mercy of a busy day
I can think of nothing more to say

Sir Paul has a never ending filmed aspect of music and his life.Starting with Wings on,if you pay attention,you can see where he begins a different sound and color of pretense.for example how singles;girls school,helen wheels,jrs farm seem like a short era of great music connected.Where as the record;wings at the speed of sound,stands alone and is entirely different then record;back to the egg,each have a similar outstanding quality as to how the beatles changed completely per recording.wings wild life and red rose speedway,the same...evolving way..only both were of a voice of being,in that the music seems to be from the same design but on different vertical sides`wildlife is on the up and coming left side vertically,red rose speedway on the same vertical accent...though on the other side of its sphere.Yet somehow both are in a similar moving gravity.while being opposites as well.mccartney and ram are in a solution of reactment and energy flows.MCcartney is finding starting again obvious without the beatles as his band.only if you listen to songs like maybe im amazed,everynight,teddy boy,hot as sun,junk,lovely linda....you may understand why Paul was a huge direct influence on the Beatles.So with MCcartneys no judgeing of metric sound,he innocently reveals that he is starting new...but couldnt help the fact there is a Beatles sound.Im pretty sure it was concidental,he was just being himself on a completely different level....and expresses almost knaivly he is definately a genius.Ram is the energy ,songs of power heading,clear and wide,in the very middle of first side....there is a reminder of mccartney the first recording.then it slips out into the distance almost deliberatly.back seat of my car,long haired lady,eat at home,monkberry moondelight,admiral halsey...are great loud rock and roll pop songs,their clearness is almost strange the way these tunes play and frolic..with a natures symphony orchestra,texture.after Ram,its quiet..like Paul is hiding on another planet.the beatles conciseness at accentuating every year in the 60 has a meaning here.That Sir Paul,was a major timekeeper of sound departures and reality changes in a more evident way then normal everyday time kept in accordance of.Band On The Run,suddenly without warning appears..brand newness,produced sound,expert tracking,rock and roll,yes......but where and how did he create it?There are song's that seem very polished with a detail oriented band.At the same time then one finds most of the songs are Paul,Linda,Denny Laine..doing all the creating.But it seems to have a unique invisibleness to it of mystery,as in, you cant say how is Paul doing all of this record in such a brillant concept?A entire mystique of another presence in flow is glowing on band on the run.
