Poison is Beneath dream home Buried there years
Kid runs in crying from in the garden "Mommy, I my hands" "What's making our so itchy? Don't rub 'em swell up"
Oh, oh, oh, oh the big waste dump Oh, yeah, oh,
We your ticky-tacky houses On landfill soil, to cover up a We left you years before of chemicals and leaking gas dig a little while you'll find our acid baths
Cesspools in Oozing
Groundwater's poisoned, air like hell The lines for doctors grow Over the company laughs "We owe you a damn thing"
But about all these fainting spells? How'd you like a my open sores
And oh, oh, oh, oh Why are our stillborn? Oh, yeah, oh,
A storage tank's leaking it's about to Why evacuate when you can the fun Nothing happens here, get out the chairs We'll drink lemonade and watch Martinez burn
Cesspools in Oozing by the day
The land we you is right atop our acid pits We them by the truckload in the dead of night There's a thousand more tips of the iceberg We pay a little bribe or we don't report them
And see you get in Eden, in Eden, no accident Just a of our greed fueled negligence
So you've found the proof why your rate's shot up But whatcha do when we've got all the cards Times Beach, Rocky Flats, Love and Bhopal Merry Christmas, hostages the folks who care
Cesspools in In In
Have a day
