Mercy Mercy Me/I Want You Songtext / Lyric

Oh, 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, south and east



Oh, oh mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no

Oil wasted on the oceans and our seas

Oh, Fish full of mercury



Oh, oh 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 are dying






Oh, oh mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

No, no

What about this over-crowded 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

Said I want you to love me

Just like I want you



Oh, I'll give you all the love

You want in return sweet darlin'

Your happiness is all I crave

Ooh, it's too bad - it's just too sad

You don't want me now

But I'm gonna change

Your mind someway, somehow, baby



I want you

The right way

I want you

But I want you to want me too

Said I want you to love me

Just like I want you, ooh



A one way love is just the fantasy

Oh, sugar

To share is precious pure and fair, ooh

Don't play with something

You should cherish for your life, baby

Don't you want to care?

Lonely?

I'm there



I want you



Oh, 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, south and east



Oh, mercy, mercy me

Oh, things ain't what they used to be

What about this over-crowded 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, ooh



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



Aah
