Legend In My Living Room Lyrics - Eurythmics

When I was just seventeen I ran away from home 

To be with all the pretty people 

To be on my own 

Bright lights and trains and bedsit stains 

And pavements paved with gold 

And I believed in everything that everybody told me 

Have mercy 

Have mercy on me 

I found myself in a lonely place with a suitcase full of dreams 

and I soon grew up to realise what living in the doghouse means 

But everyday I told myself good things would happen soon 

'Cause I knew that was going to be a legend in my living room 

Have mercy 

Have mercy on me 

(Welcome to this perfect world) 

Now everyday on a dead street is where I spend my time 

The dust has been collecting on the corners of my mind 

But I've shed my tears in bitter drops until the thorn trees bloomed 

To take the spiky fruit to crown myself the Queen of doom 

Have mercy 

Have mercy
