Bilingual
Cops and robbers, strictly bargain line
Spend the wet night tracking visions down through the pines
Draw my arms into my hospital gown
See the sky open up and rain down
Rain down
Mercy

Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
ย
Hear my rivals on the western wind
It's hard to know who might or might not be your friend
Work by the plutonian light
Forbidden rosary prayers all night
All night
Mercy
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
ย
Beam of the flashlight
All night in the woods
Hunt us like the dogs we are
And you can string us up for good
ย
Keep one step ahead of my enemies
And foretell worse things than such frightful nights as these
Lead us to the beach by our hands
And bury us there in the sand
Bury us head first
Mercy
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
Mercy for the Diaz brothers
