Letra de Cesspools In Eden
Poison is bubbling Beneath your dream home Buried there years before Kid runs in crying From playing in the garden "Mommy, I burned my hands!" "What's making our eyes so itchy? Don't rub 'em, they'll swell up" Oh... Oh, oh, oh It's a big waste dumpOh, yeah Oh, yeah We built your ticky-tacky houses on landfill soil To cover up a gift we left you years before Of toxic chemicals and leaking gas Just dig a little while, you'll find our acid bathsCesspools in Eden Oozing awayGroundwater's poisoned, air stings like hell The lines for doctors grow long Over martinis, the company laughs "We don't owe you a damn thing" But what about all these fainting spells? How'd you like a lick from my open sores? And, oh... Oh, oh, oh Why are our babies stillborn?Oh, yeah Oh, yeahA storage tank's leaking, it's about to explode Why evacuate when you can watch the fun? Nothing happens here, get out the lawn chairs We'll drink pink lemonade and watch Martinez burnCesspools in Eden Oozing away Leak by the dayThe land we sold you is right atop our acid pits We fill them by the truckload in the dead of nightThere's a thousand more toxic tips of the iceberg We pay a little bribe or we just don't report themAnd see what you get? Cesspools in Eden In Eden No accident -- just a little of our greed-fueled negligence!So, you've found the proof why your cancer rate's shot up But what ya gonna do when we've got all the cards? Times Beach, Rocky Flats, Love Canal, and Bhopal Merry Christmas, hostages, from the folks that careCesspools in Eden In Eden In Eden In EdenHave a nice day
