    The song laments the deterioration of the natural environment due to various forms of pollution and the impacts of climate change. It references chemical pollution poisoning the wind, oil spills polluting the seas and fish full of mercury, radiation in the sky impacting nearby animals, and worries about how much abuse the overcrowded land can withstand from man.

    Mercy, Mercy Me by Marvin Gaye

    Woo ah, mercy mercy me


    Ah things ain't what they used to be, no no
    Where did all the 1) skies go?
    Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east
    Woo mercy, mercy me
    Ah things ain't what they used to be, no no
    Oil wasted on the 2) and upon our seas, fish full of mercury
    Ah oh mercy, mercy me
    Ah things ain't what they used to be, no no
    Radiation underground and in the sky
    3) 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 4) from man can she stand?
    Oh, na na...
    My sweet Lord... No
    My Lord... My sweet Lord
