Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) by Marvin Gaye

Woo 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

Woo, 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

Ah ah oh, mercy mercy me
Ah, 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
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 na na
Na na na na na
My my Lord, my sweet Lord
My Lord
