Lyrics Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) - Single Version - Marvin Gaye

Whoa, oh 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

Whoa mercy, mercy me (mercy)
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
Oil wasted on the ocean and upon our seas
Fish full of mercury, oh, oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be, oh no

Radiation underground 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-na-na-na, ooh
