  1692>Ah, excuse me Mr.
  Do you have the time?
  Or are you so important
  That it stands still?
 
 
  Excuse me Mr.
  Won't you lend me your ear?
  Are you not only blind,
  But do you not hear?
 
 
  Excuse me Mr.
  But isn't that your oil in the sea?
  And the pollution in the air, Mr.
  Whose could that be?
  So excuse me Mr.
  But, uh, I'm Mr. too
  And you're giving Mr. a bad name
  Mr. like you
 
 
  So I'm takin' the Mr.
  From out in front of your name
  Cause its Mr. like you
  That puts the rest of us to shame
  Its the Mr. like you
  That puts the rest of us to shame
 
 
  And I, I have seen enough
  I've seen enough to know
  That I have seen too much
 
 
  Excuse me Mr.
  Can't you see the children dyin'?
  You say that you can't help them
  Mr. you not even trying
 
 
  Excuse me Mr.
  Just take a look around
  Ah, Mr. just look up and you will
  You will see it coming down
 
 
  Lord, excuse me Mr.
  But, uh, I'm a, I'm a Mr. too
  Givin' Mr. a bad name
  Mr. like you
 
 
  So I'm takin' the Mr.
  From out in front of your name
  Cause its the Mr. like you
  Who puts the rest of us to shame
  Its the Mr. like you
  Puttin' the rest of us to shame
 
 
  And I have seen enough.
  I've seen it, I've seen this
  I've seen enough to know
  That I've seen too much
  I've seen enough
  I have seen enough
  Its over when I've seen too much
 
 
  See, Cause Mr.
  When you're rattling on heaven's gate
  By then it is too late
  Cause Mr. when you get there they don't ask,
  They don't ask what you saved
  All they wanna know Mr. is what you gave
 
 
  So excuse me Mr. but, uh, I'm a Mr. too
  And you're givin' Mr. a bad name
  Mr. like you
  So I'm taking the Mr.
  From out in front of your name
  Cause its the Mr., Mr., like you
  Who puts the rest of us to shame
  Its the Mr. like you
  That puts the rest of us to shame
