I don't believe the things I'm seeing
I've been wondering about somethings I've heard
Everybody is crying Mercy
When they don't know the meaning of the word
It's a bad enough situation
Sure enough, it's getting worse
Everybody is crying Justice
Just as soon as there's business first
Toe to toe
Touch and go
Give a cheer
and get your own souvenir
You know the people running 'round in circles
I don't know what they are headed for
Everybody is crying Peace
on
Earth
Just as soon as we win this war
Straight ahead
Knock 'in dead
Pack your kit
And choose your own hypocrite
You don't have to go to off-Broadway
To see something that is playing absurd
Everybody is crying Mercy
when they don't know the meaning of the word
Nobody knows the meaning of the word
