[Intro]
Here we have something for you folks, we hope
You enjoy it as we enter our social section
Thank you

[Verse 1]
Whoa, 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

[Verse 2]
Whoa, mercy, mercy me, hey
Ah, things ain't what they used to be
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas, fish full of mercury

[Verse 3]
Ah Jesus, yeah, mercy, mercy me
Ah, ah, things ain't what they used to be, oh
Radiation underground and in the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying

[Verse 4]
Hey, mercy, mercy me, oh
Hey, things ain't what they used to be
What about this overcrowded land?
How much more abuse from man can she stand?
[Outro]
Oh, na na na, oh oh oh oh oh, hey, ooh, woo
