Lyrics

Woah, ah mercy mercy me Ah things ain't what they used to be, no no Where did all the blue skies go? Poison is the wind that blows From the north and south and east Woah mercy, mercy me, yeah yeah Ah things ain't what they used to be Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas Fish full of mercury Oh Jesus yeah mercy, mercy me ah Ah things ain't what they used to be, oh no Radiation under ground and in the sky Animals and birds who live nearby are dying Hey mercy, mercy me oh Ah things ain't what they used to be What about this overcrowded land How much more abuse from man can she stand? Oh, na na na Ohh baby hey ooh
