Lyrics
Ah, mercy mercy, mercy mercy
Ah, mercy mercy
Oh, oh mercy, mercy me (mercy, mercy me)
Oh 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
Oh, mercy, mercy me (mercy, mercy me)
Oh things ain't what they used to be
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
Oh, mercy, mercy me (mercy, mercy me)
Oh things ain't what they used to be, no, no
Radiation under ground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying
Oh mercy, mercy me
Oh things ain't what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land?
How much more abuse from man can she stand?
Oh, Oh, mercy mercy
Oh Lord, oh Lord, what do we do?
Oh, mercy, mercy me (mercy, mercy me)
Oh things ain't what they used to be
Where did all the blue skies go?
Oh, Oh, mercy mercy, mercy mercy
Mercy mercy
Mercy mercy, mercy mercy
Mercy mercy
