Mercenary - Panic! At The Disco

Just a dime store poet
Keeping pace, talking his face blue
Two dollar store tramps
To get a glance, a new chance at you

Walk past the dance floor
That's always been a dear friend of mine
Cut calls and concubines
Dancing in 4/4 time

Hey mister
The bellman says
”I can only recall this nice hotel, I said”
So he replies “
“Then how do you manage?”
“I dodge the blast
And apologize for collateral damage”

In love I've always been a mercenary
But I never leave my post when the cash runs out
I want to make you quiver
Make your backbone shiver
Hey kid, take the stage and deliver

Hey mister
The bellman says
”I can only recall this nice hotel, I said”
So he replies “
“Then how do you manage?”
“I dodge the blast
And apologize for collateral damage”

Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage
Collateral damage

How does it feel to stand on the very stones that ran with your parent's blood?
Do you feel sad?
Full of rage?
Or does that outfit help you bury your feelings?
I hate to hear your true self
You're truly an extraordinary specimen
I look forward to breaking you”

I dodge the blast
And apologize for collateral damage
