[Verse 1]
Oh
Oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be now, nah
Where did all the blue skies go?
Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east
[Verse 2]
Oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be now, nah
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
[Verse 3]
Oh (Oh)
Oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be now, nah
Radiation under ground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying
[Verse 4]
Oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
What about the hatred in this land
How much more abuse from man can we stand?
[Verse 5]
No, whoa
Mercy, mercy me
Oh, whoa-whoa
Things ain't what they used to be
Children are dying
Dying
Ah, aye-aye, ah, aye-aye, mercy
[Verse 6]
Oh, whoa, oh
