Messin' - Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Right now the world ain’t looking too hot

Unless you’re dead you must know what I mean

There’s a lot we lost

They say they’ve got an answer but I think it’s all a dream

Well it’s easy to forget about it, just get high

Live up in your castle in the sky

But you still breathe in the same air as me Eating, drinking, poisoning where it should be We’re messin' up the land

We’re messin' up the sea

We’re messin' up the air

Messin' up on you and me

(repeat)

Things are worse than going wrong

Here we still go rushing proudly on Take a look around, like around you everywhere

This must be the age, the age of I don’t care

Right now the world ain’t looking too hot

Unless you’re dead you must know what I mean

You can read it in the papers, hear it on the news

The earth is going down, going down in pollution blues

We’re messin' up the land

We’re messin' up the sea

We’re messin' up the air

Messin' up on you and me

(repeat)
