     Riff: 
 
   Note: don't take it too strictly, it's what he plays 
on the record but when he performes it live he tends to 
alternate bass with thumb and chord with fingers.

	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
