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.
Mercy mercy me
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no
Oil wasted on the oceans and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury
Oh, mercy mercy me
Ah, things ain't what they used to be, no, no, no.
Radiation underground and in the the sky
Animals and birds who live nearby are dying.
Oh, mercy mercy me
Ah, things ain't what they used to be
What about this over-crowded land?
How much more abuse from man can she stand?
