  • Pardon me, all you people
  • Who enjoy your peace of mind
  • You say everybodys equal
  • Everybody is doing fine.
  • You shouldve been down in mississippi
  • In the summer of sixty-four
  • If you were down in mississippi
  • You wouldnt say that anymore.
  • Pardon me, mr.backlash,
  • You say youre worried about your home
  • You say were going too far too fast
  • You say you want to be left alone.
  • *chorus*
  • Pardon me, mr.policeman,
  • Why are you shining up your shield
  • You say you stand for law and order
  • You wouldnt do no dirty deals.
  • *chorus*
  • Pardon me, mr. soldier,
  • Why are you marching down the road
  • You say youre fighting for your future
  • And the freedoms that you hold.
  • *chorus*
  • Pardon me, mr. president,
  • You want your place in history
  • You say youre doing all you can do
  • To makle all the people free.
  • *chorus*
  • Pardon me, all you people
  • Who enjoy your peace of mind
  • You say everybodys equal
  • Everybody is doing fine.
  • *chorus*
