everybody's crying mercy

i can't believe the things i've seen

i wonder bout some things i've heard

everybody's crying mercy

when they don't know the meaning of the word

a bad enough situation

is sure enough getting worse

everybody's crying justice

just as long as there's business first

toe to toe

touch and go

give a cheer

get your souvenier

people running round in circles

don't know what they're headed for

everybody's crying peace on earth

just as soon as we win this war

straight ahead

knock em dead

pack your kid

choose your hypocrite

well you don't have to go to off broadway

to see something played absurd

everybody's crying mercy

when they don't know the meaning of the word

nobody knows the meaning of the word

when they don't know the meaning of the word

nobody knows the meaning of the word

nobody knows the meaning of the word
