 	Lyrics:
 
 Excuse me Mr.
 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 thechildren 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'll 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's too late
 
 cause Mr. when you get there
 they don't ask how much you saved
 all they'l 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
