Everybodys Cryin Mercy — текст песни (Bonnie Raitt)

I dont believe the things Im seein

Ive been wonderin bout some things Ive heard

Everybodys crying mercy

When they dont know the meaning of the word





A bad enough situation

Is sure enough getting worse

Everybodys crying justice

Just as soon as theres business first



Toe to toe, touch and go

Give a cheer and get your own souvenir



Well you know the people running round in circles

Dont know what theyre headed for

Everybodys crying peace on earth

Just as soon as we win this war



Straight ahead, gotta knock em dead

So pack your kit, choose your own hypocrite



You dont have to go to off-broadway

To see something plain absurd

Everybodys crying mercy

When they dont know the meaning of the word



Nobody knows the meaning of the word
