Ben Harper - Excuse Me Mr lyrics

do you have the time

or are you so important

that it stands still for you

excuse me Mr.

lend me your ear

or are you not only blind

but do you not hear

excuse me Mr.

isn't that your oil in the sea

and the pollution in the air Mr.

whose could that be

excuse me Mr.

but I'm a mister 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 it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame

it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame

and I've seen enough to know

that I've seen too much

excuse me Mr.

can't you see the children dying

you say that you can't help them

Mr. you're not even trying

excuse me Mr.

take a look around

Mr. just look up

and you will see it's comin' down

excuse me Mr.

but I'm a mister 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 it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame

it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame

and I've seen enough to know

that I've seen too much

so Mr. when you're rattling

on heaven's gate

let me tell you Mr.

by then it is too late

cause Mr. when you get there

they don't ask how much you saved

all they'll want to know, Mr.

Is what you gave

excuse me Mr.

but I'm a mister 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 it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame

it's a Mr. like you

that puts the rest of us to shame
