Mercy Mercy Lyrics - Robert Palmer

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 west and south and east 

Oh mercy mercy me 

Oh, things ain't what they used to be, no no 

Oil wasted on the oceans and our seas 

Ah, fish full of mercury 

Ah-ha, ah mercy mercy me 

Oh, things ain't what they used to be, no no 

Radiation underground and in the sky 

Animals and birds who live nearby all die 

Whoa 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? 

I want you the right way 

I want you, but I want you to want me too 

Want you to want me baby 

Just like I want you 

Oh I'll give you all the love that you want in return, sweet darling 

Your happyness is all I crave 

It's too bad, it's just too sad 

You don't want me no more 

But I'm gonna change your mind 

Some way somehow baby 

I want you the right way 

I want you, but I want you to want me too 

I want you to want me baby 

Just like I want you, ooh 

Well one way love is just a fantasy, ah sugar 

To share is precious, pure and fair, ooh 

Don't play with something you should cherish for life, baby 

Don't you wanna care? 

Lonely out there 

I want you the right way 

I want you, but I want you to want me too 

Want you to want me baby 

Just like I want you, ooh
