The Strokes, Eddie Vedder and Joshua Homme - Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)

Whoa
Oh, mercy, mercy me
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
Oh 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
Oh, things ain't what they used to be
Oh no, oil wasted on the ocean and upon our sea
Fish full of mercury, whoa

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

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 you stand?
