Woh-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 and 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 Ah, fish full of mercury
Ah-ah, 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
Woh-oh, 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 (and I want you) the right way I want you but I want you to want me too (want me too) Want you to want me, baby (said I want you to love me) Just like I want you (I want you, ooh ooh)
Oh, I'll give you all the love That you want in return, sweet darling Your happiness is all I crave Ooh ooh 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 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 (I want you) the right way (I want you, baby) I want you but I want you to want me too (Oh, I) want you to want me, baby (won't you get down, baby) (When I get down) just like I want you (with you, yeah, darling) I want you (I want you) the right way (the right way, baby) I want you (I want you, babe) but I want you to want me too Want you to want me, baby (ah, the way) Just like I want you (that I want you)
